Overview

Have you ever wanted to put your analytical skills toward protecting public programs that people rely on every single day? At Peraton, our SafeGuard Services team is on the front lines of safeguarding government healthcare programs. We are looking for a sharp, curious Data Analyst to join us remotely from anywhere in the world. In this role, you will dig deep into complex datasets to uncover anomalies, spot improper payments, and help stop fraud before it drains vital resources. If you love solving puzzles with data and want your work to make a real societal impact, this fully remote opportunity is calling your name.

Key Responsibilities

You will dive into massive amounts of Medicaid claims data and other external information sources to research payment patterns. Your daily work involves reviewing sophisticated data model outputs and applying various analytical tools to flag potential fraud. You will look closely at billing norms across physicians, hospitals, nursing facilities, and home health providers to spot unusual spikes or schemes. When needed, you will present your findings clearly, citing specific regulatory violations and potentially even testifying in court regarding your discoveries.

Requirements

Success in this position requires a strong background in data analysis, preferably within healthcare, insurance, or government compliance sectors. You should feel comfortable handling large, complex datasets and writing queries to extract meaningful insights. Strong communication skills are vital because you will need to explain technical findings to investigators and legal teams. Independent research skills and a sharp eye for detail will help you thrive while working autonomously in a global remote environment.

Joining Peraton means stepping into a culture that values innovation, collaboration, and continuous learning. You will enjoy total location flexibility, allowing you to work from your home office anywhere across the globe. Beyond the lifestyle benefits, you will gain hands-on experience fighting fraud at an enterprise scale while working alongside some of the sharpest professionals in the industry. Your work here truly matters, protecting taxpayer dollars and ensuring healthcare funds reach the individuals who genuinely need them.
