The District of Hawaii is seeking applications from experienced attorneys for a position as an Assistant United States Attorney ("AUSA") in its Civil Division. The AUSA will focus on the investigation and prosecution of affirmative civil cases under the False Claims Act, seeking to recover damages and civil monetary penalties growing out of fraud committed upon federal programs and contracts. The AUSA will be required to learn regulations of federally-funded health care programs such as Medicare, Medicaid and Tricare, as well as regulations concerning Department of Defense and other federal contracts. The AUSA will work with investigators to review allegations of wrongdoing, obtain and analyze large volumes of data, conduct interviews, and negotiate and litigate cases involving the submission of false claims. The ideal candidate will have an interest in learning complex statutory and regulatory schemes, a desire to build teams and collaborate, and experience in the aggressive pursuit of monetary recoveries.
Depending on workload, the AUSA may also be assigned defensive tort cases, including the defense of medical malpractice claims, and appellate matters.
The attorney must be devoted to justice, excellence and representing the public. In addition, the attorney must have excellent writing skills, a strong work ethic, and outstanding organizational skills. The attorney must be able to analyze complex legal and factual issues and pay careful attention to facts and details. The attorney must work well both independently and, on a team, and must be willing to assist other attorneys on an as needed basis. The position requires an attorney who can negotiate fairly and effectively with opposing counsel and who can advance persuasively the United States' position in court hearings and trials.
