About The Role

We are seeking a technical/proposal writer and Analyst to support the CMS FPS program. This role will own end-to-end authoring of the CMS-facing artifacts produced by the Proposal & Assessment Team: the vendor-list assessment package and the AI Tool Proof of Concept (POC) Solution proposal. The Writer converts input from the AI Solutions Architect, Regulatory & Compliance Lead, Program Manager, and vendor materials into clear, decision-ready CMS deliverables on a compressed schedule. The Writer is proficient in using AI for technical writing and report generation.

Responsibilities:
  • Own the outline, drafting, review, red-team, and final production of the vendor-list assessment package.
  • Own the outline and draft of the POC Solution proposal covering development approach, demonstration plan, effectiveness analysis, implementation/production recommendations, cost, and gained efficiency.
  • Run the drafting cadence and section-lead coordination
  • Maintain CMS-facing style, format, and traceability standards; manage figures, tables, and program-requirement traceability.
  • Use Peraton's internal tool, Peraton[x] as a productivity accelerator for first drafts and consistency checking, then apply senior editorial judgment to every CMS-facing paragraph.

Qualifications

  • 5 years with BS/BA; 3 years with MS/MA; 0 years with PhD
  • Ability to be highly independent and adaptive in a fast-changing environment.
  • Has an "AI first" mentality and uses AI to accelerate productivity.
  • Experience using generative-AI writing assistants (LLMs, agentic drafting tools) for first-draft acceleration, with the editorial discipline to correct and ground the output.
  • Experience authoring CMS-facing or comparable Federal-health-agency artifacts under compressed schedules.
  • Ability to synthesize architect, security, and program input into a single, consistent, decision-ready document with clean requirement traceability.
  • Strong command of technical-communication fundamentals: outline discipline, section-lead coordination, figure/table strategy, style guides, red-team incorporation.
  • Comfort with the subject matter (LLMs, agentic AI, cloud data platforms, AWS, fraud-detection/program-integrity use cases) sufficient to edit and challenge engineering input.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication.
  • US citizenship; ability to obtain and maintain a Public Trust clearance.

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Prior proposal work on CMS or other Federal health programs
  • APMP certification or equivalent proposal-management credential.
  • Experience producing vendor-evaluation / POC-outcome reports for a Federal customer.
  • Working knowledge of Medicare/Medicaid program integrity terminology (e.g., UPIC, MEDIC, MFCU, NPI).
  • Familiarity with SAFe Agile documentation cadence (Confluence/JIRA).
