Program Overview

The program is an IDIQ contract for an AWS-based cloud hosting system. Currently, Peraton is supporting the Cloud Security, IoT, and AIML use cases for the environment in a hybrid work environment with Federal employees. Peraton also support the following applications as part of the environment: Dremio, Tableau, Globus, Posit/RStudio, Atlassian, ThingLogix, Alteryx and CloudCheckr.

About The Role

Peraton is seeking a Junior Business Analyst with experience in federal environmental systems to support requirements analysis and stakeholder coordination on behalf of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), part of the Department of the Interior, which manages fish, wildlife, and habitats across the United States, on a federal data integration program. You will work closely with the FWS BA SME to document workflows, develop user stories, and support approval tracking activities. The Department of the Interior (DOI), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), and NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) have identified a critical gap in the federal government's ability to conduct comprehensive Endangered Species Act (ESA) research. While FWS operates an authoritative web-based platform for managing data for terrestrial and freshwater species, it does not currently include NMFS marine and anadromous species data forcing agencies to rely on separate, manual processes. This program closes that gap by integrating marine and anadromous species data into the existing FWS platform, creating a single, unified experience for all ESA-listed species.
