Senior Momentum Financial Management SME — Federal IV&V (Contingent Upon Contract Award)

Description

Loch Harbour Group is building the Momentum subject matter expert bench for an upcoming Independent Verification and Validation (IV&V) opportunity supporting a major federal financial management modernization program. The program is migrating a large federal department from a legacy financial system to a configured deployment of CGI's Momentum Enterprise Suite delivered through a commercial SaaS model, and the IV&V contractor provides objective assurance across implementation waves, operations and maintenance releases, and interface integrations.

We are seeking experienced Momentum professionals who want to apply their functional and technical expertise in an independent assurance role on a high-visibility federal modernization. This is not a system integrator or development role. The work is genuine IV&V, providing the Government with decision-quality evidence about system readiness, requirements coverage, interface health, and risk posture.

What You Will Do

• Perform independent verification and validation of Momentum business processes, configurations, interfaces, and reporting across implementation waves and operations and maintenance releases
• Develop and execute manual and automated Momentum test scripts anchored to approved requirements, business processes, and interface control documents
• Build database queries using TOAD, Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, or Oracle SQL Developer to support verification points that cannot be observed through the user interface
• Maintain requirements traceability matrices connecting Momentum test scripts to approved requirements, business processes, designs, and configurations
• Identify, document, and track defects through JIRA and Xray toolchains, reconciling findings weekly against the program's defect management systems
• Support Test Readiness Reviews, Implementation Readiness Reviews, and product reviews of program deliverables including Interface Control Documents, Concept of Operations documents, Release Plans, and Technical Impact Assessments
• Recognize the difference between a Momentum configuration issue and a defect in delivered code, and communicate that distinction clearly to both technical and financial stakeholders
• Contribute to interface regression testing across connected systems, with particular attention to integration points with other enterprise modernization efforts
• Produce findings and recommendations that give Government leadership defensible evidence for wave go-live and release acceptance decisions

Location: Remote (United States) with occasional travel to Austin, TX

Employment Type: Full-time, contingent upon contract award
