About the Job

Requirements

  • Experience in workforce development, including programmatic experience in at least one WIOA program: Title I (Adult, Dislocated Worker, Youth), Title II (Adult Education and Family Literacy), Title III (Wagner-Peyser Employment Service), Title IV (Vocational Rehabilitation), or Title V (Senior Community Service Employment Program).
  • Hands-on experience with PIRL and federal reporting for grant-funded programs.
  • Hands-on experience with more than one state case management system.
  • Experience with government software as a user, implementer, or administrator in a public-sector setting.
  • Grant management experience, including understanding how reporting ties to performance, funding, and compliance.
  • Ability to read and interpret technical federal specifications and translate them into precise, unambiguous requirements.
  • Logical reasoning ability, including expressing rules as clear conditions and working through edge cases methodically.
  • Familiarity with testing and quality assurance practices, including writing test cases and validating report outputs against expected results.
  • Meticulous attention to detail, including understanding how miscounted fields or formatting errors can cause reports to be rejected or put funding at risk.
  • Comfort working in spreadsheets to check counts, reconcile numbers, and trace discrepancies.

Responsibilities

  • Interpret federal reporting specifications, data standards, and program guidance, focusing on PIRL and related U.S. Department of Labor and Department of Education reporting, and turn them into detailed functional requirements.
  • Write clear, testable business rules for reporting periods and date ranges; reporting populations including participants, exiters, and co-enrollments across WIOA titles; unduplicated counts and deduplication; enrollment, program participation, and exit logic; age and status calculations as of specified dates; and missing, refused, or conflicting data.
  • Document required file layouts, field definitions, code lists, ordering, and file-naming conventions for CSV, XML, fixed-width, or agency-specific templates so exports pass federal validation.
  • Identify root causes of reporting and compliance problems arising from system logic, data entry, or unclear guidance, and lead the issues through to a documented fix.
  • Research agency FAQs, TEGLs, and technical assistance resources to resolve gaps or contradictions in federal guidance; document system handling of edge cases and the reasoning for each decision.
  • Build test scenarios and expected results for reporting logic; partner with QA to review system outputs against specifications and federal validation tools such as DOL's WIPS edit checks; trace errors back to the rule or data that caused them.
  • Apply knowledge of state case management systems' participant-data capture and structure to anticipate integration, mapping, and consistency challenges across customers in multiple states.
  • Monitor updates to federal specifications, PIRL versions, and reporting cycles; assess impacts on the system and customers and plan updates ahead of deadlines.
  • Recommend intake workflows, required fields, and validation checks to prevent bad data from entering the system.
  • Help program staff understand reports, troubleshoot validation errors, and answer questions from grant managers, monitors, and auditors.

Desired Qualifications

  • Familiarity with Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200) and general grants compliance.
  • Experience with additional federal reporting systems or data standards, such as WIPS, NRS, RSA-911, HMIS, CAREWare, or Sage.
  • Experience working with federal agencies, state workforce agencies, or their technical assistance providers.
  • Basic SQL or reporting-tool experience for querying data during validation.
  • Background as a program administrator, grants manager, or data analyst at a federally funded agency or local workforce development board.
