Role Title: Federal Budget Analyst

Role Type: Contractor

Location: Remote, US only

micro1 is engaging Federal Budget Analysts to contribute to a customer's project focused on budget formulation and execution within the federal sector. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input.

Scope of Work

Create realistic training examples of federal budget justification materials, including narratives, exhibits, and supporting analyses.

Write sample responses to OMB passback with clear, well-supported analysis, and annotate the reasoning behind each choice.

Document mid-year reprogramming scenarios, noting which actions require higher-level approval and how they stay consistent with spend plans.

Build worked examples that compare actual expenditures against planned obligations, evaluate fund availability, and explain variances.

Walk through year-end closeout step by step, including reconciliation with accounting records and resolution of discrepancies.

Write guidance on funding types, budget changes, and compliance requirements, drawing on how experienced analysts advise program managers.

Produce templates, process walkthroughs, and annotated examples that capture how federal budget work is actually done.

Review AI-generated budget content for accuracy, realism, and compliance, and explain what is wrong or missing so it can be corrected.

Preferred qualifications

5+ years of federal budget experience at about the GS-11/12 level or higher, in GS-0560, 0501, 0510, or comparable roles.

Experience with budget formulation, execution, and funds control.

Experience with OMB submissions, reprogramming, and year-end closeout.

Familiarity with federal accounting and budget execution systems.

Financial management certification (DoD FM, CGFM, or similar) a plus.
