Peraton is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to fill a role of a Data and Integration Engineer to support the CMS Fraud Prevention System (FPS) Program. The Data and Integration Engineer owns both the one-time integration effort that lands Peraton’s propriety tool, Rapid FI, inside the FPS operating environment and the ongoing FPS data pipelines that feed Rapid FI. Working with the FPS Innovation Lab team, this role supports the Rapid FI application tier inside the FPS AWS boundary and builds the ingestion, transformation, and delivery layer that pulls data from FPS to power Rapid FI's Medicaid and FDOC user experiences.

Key Responsibilities

• Establish the Rapid FI data-ingestion path from FPS-authoritative sources
• Design, build, and operate the FPS data pipelines feeding Rapid FI; for example, the FPS Medicaid fraud-detection model outputs, provider/beneficiary reference data, claims history, UCM case records, historical enforcement records, and OnePI data.
• Wire Rapid FI into FPS identity, RBAC, audit, and security controls; produce the integration documentation (data-flow diagrams, control mappings) the Regulatory & Compliance Lead and CMS need.
• Run pipelines on the FPS Modeling and Analytics Platform under FPS security and governance controls, and align pipeline design with the planned FTEC data-warehouse consolidation.
• Coordinate with the Rapid FI product team on releases and operational hand-off.
