A DCAA Audit job involves reviewing financial records and accounting systems of government contractors to ensure compliance with Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) regulations. Professionals in this role assess cost estimates, indirect cost rates, and financial statements to verify accuracy and adherence to federal guidelines. They work closely with auditors, accountants, and government agencies to ensure proper contract billing and prevent fraud or mismanagement.

What are the main challenges someone in a DCAA audit position might face?

One of the main challenges in a DCAA Audit position is navigating the complexity of federal regulations and compliance requirements when auditing government contractors. Auditors must frequently interpret and apply changing policies, document procedures meticulously, and communicate findings clearly to both internal teams and external clients. Working with tight deadlines and handling sensitive financial information also adds to the pressure. However, these challenges make the work dynamic and rewarding, and provide valuable opportunities to develop specialized expertise in government contract auditing.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the DCAA audit position, and why are they important?

To excel in DCAA Audit roles, you typically need a background in accounting, finance, or auditing, often with a bachelor's degree and relevant experience in government contract compliance. Familiarity with government accounting standards, cost accounting standards (CAS), and proficient use of audit software and ERP systems like Deltek or SAP are common requirements. Analytical thinking, attention to detail, integrity, and strong communication skills set top auditors apart. These qualifications enable accurate, compliant audits and effective collaboration with stakeholders in high-stakes government contracting environments.

Job description

Are you an A&D finance leader who loves building from scratch?

If you're tired of maintaining rigid, legacy systems built decades ago and want to architect a modern, fully compliant government contracting finance infrastructure, this is your greenfield opportunity.

This is a high-growth technology innovator delivering cutting-edge solutions to defense and commercial sectors. They are expanding rapidly, and need a Senior Director of FP&A & Program Finance to serve as the master architect of the financial ecosystem.


What You’ll Own

  • The Blueprint: Build our Program Finance infrastructure from scratch—establishing contract structures (WBS, CLINs), Estimate at Completion (EAC/ETC) models, and standardized performance dashboards.
  • The Math: Architect our government cost accounting model—designing indirect cost pools, allocation bases, forward pricing, and provisional billing rates.
  • The Compliance: Lead our DCAA readiness roadmap, ensuring timekeeping, cost segregation, and labor-charging practices meet FAR/CAS standards.
  • The Tech: Serve as the core Finance lead for our new ERP implementation, translating complex Defense Finance requirements into automated workflows.
  • The Strategy: Partner directly with the CFO to manage corporate budgeting, cash flow modeling, long-range planning, and executive reporting.


What You Bring

  • 12–15+ years of progressive finance leadership in Aerospace, Defense, or US Government Contracting.
  • Hands-on experience building indirect rate pools, cost allocation strategies, and program controls—not just operating within an existing model.
  • Deep knowledge of FAR Part 31, CAS, and DCAA audit preparation.
  • Proven leadership through an ERP implementation within a government contracting environment.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance or Accounting required; MBA, CPA, or CMA preferred.
