  • Supporting the drafting, review, and routing of Governmental Inter-departmental Purchase Requests (GIPRs), Inter-Agency Agreements (IAAs), and Purchase Requests (PRs)
  • Maintaining a comprehensive understanding of PM portfolios, including approved programs, new initiatives, seedlings, and SBIRs/Small Business Technology Transfer (STTRs)
  • Assisting with new program development and ideation, solicitation preparation and management, and tracking timelines of awards
  • Ensuring the integrity of the funding obligation process; create funding execution (Requisitions) documents for compliance with the appropriation
  • Responding to data calls from ADPM and PAs; and provide integration support and Request For Information (RFI) responses to other offices at ARPA-H
  • Engaging with internal and external stakeholders on budgetary and financial matters
  • Maintaining schedules and calendars, providing meeting support, preparation of correspondence, and maintaining files

Minimum Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree or higher in business, finance, mathematics, communication, or a related field - substantial relevant occupational experience (~10 or more years) may be considered in lieu of degree requirement
  • At least three (3) years of financial management and/or budgeting experience
  • Experience utilizing, adapting, and developing budget and resource analytic tools, techniques, and processes for both technical and administrative support activities
  • Demonstrated experience assisting in the generation of Military Inter-departmental Purchase Requests (MIPRs) and/or Governmental Inter-departmental Purchase Requests (GIPRs), and Purchase Requests (PRs)
  • The demonstrated professionalism, maturity, sound judgement, and excellent communication and interpersonal skills necessary for daily interactions with executive-level audiences in a dynamic, high-visibility environment
  • Creativity, foresight, and mature judgment in anticipating and solving financial, administrative, and program management-related problems and issues
  • Ability to work independently or in a team setting as circumstances dictate

Highly Desirable Attributes:

  • ARPA-H experience

  • Experience with Federal budget justifications such as the Research and Development Descriptive Summaries (RDDS), HHS Justification (HHSJ), OMB Justification (OMBJ), and Congressional Justification (CJ)
