Job Summary
AECOM is looking to fill multiple full time Document Validation Specialists (DVS) to work on a 3-year contract with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Public Assistance (PA) Program supporting FEMA’s four Consolidated Resource Centers (CRC). This work is 100% remote and is based on the contingencies listed in the minimum requirements and additional information below.

Project Overview: FEMA’s PA Program provides supplemental funding to state and local governments and eligible private nonprofits, Indian tribal governments, and Alaska Native villages for disaster-related debris removal, emergency protective measures, and restoration of damaged infrastructure. AECOM will support these efforts by providing FEMA a wide range of technical and program management services to support four CRCs processing grant applications and validating/preparing damage description and dimensions, scopes of work, and cost estimates and conducting compliance reviews across multiple disasters.

Position Description:
The Data Validation Specialist (DVS) validates Public Assistance (PA) grant applications for disaster recovery projects in the completed lane with FEMA's PA delivery model. The DVS works with multiple stakeholders on projects where the disaster-related work is 100% completed and all documents have been provided by the client. The DVS develops the entire project consisting of the project description, scope of work, and cost estimate. The DVS will prepare a Request for Information (RFI) when additional information is required to complete the project. The DVS must attend daily stand-up meetings and complete required daily, weekly, and monthly reports.
The DVS will use FEMA’s Grants Manager (GM) system. FEMA’s Grants Manager system is used to assign and track actions throughout PA project development, and to collect all PA project-related information and documents, including correspondence.
