• Collaborate with and provide direct analytical support to DRO staff.

• Conduct reviews of OCSE34 and SF‑425 reports submitted by tribal child support agencies for accuracy, completeness, consistency, and anomalies, as requested.

• Collaborate with Federal teams to define requirements for new reports, including validation and monthly distribution of the FPLS Monthly Statistics Report.

• Serve as OCSE data experts by reviewing and validating OCSE statistics prior to external publication or presentation.

• Maintain data and calculations necessary to estimate NDNH‑attributable collections.

• Conduct cost/benefit analysis, burden estimates for legislative proposals, and statistical research to support budget control processes.

• Provide liaison services to external agencies receiving or supplying data (e.g., BLS, SSA) to determine MI reporting needs.

• Provide subject matter expertise in the development of management information repositories and analytics tools used across DFS.

• Catalog dataset information across system teams, security, IV&V, and other stakeholders for use in analytics environments.

• Support development, testing, and validation of standard reports, curated datasets, data transformations, and end‑user documentation in MICRS and the AWS DA environment.

• Test analytics tools including MICRS Reports, Report Builder, curated tables, and dashboards across MICRS, MICRS‑RS, and the DA environment.

• Provide end‑user support and training for MICRS and Data Analytics systems.

• Conduct analytic projects evaluating DFS application usage, system performance, enhancements, and cost‑effectiveness.

• Serve as SMEs supporting customers analyzing survey tools, statistical techniques, and visualization tools for trend analysis, cost projections, cross‑application analysis, and child support program research.

• Research statistical programs for relevance to emerging child support issues and ensure consistency in national reporting.

• Analyze state‑level data to identify statistical patterns and comparisons against national averages.

• Produce visual analytics products—including dashboards and on‑demand visualizations—to support business questions and enable self‑service analytics.
