Are you able to negotiate retirement benefits? I am trying to think of every way to get ahead and I’m wondering if I could negotiate a higher match amount

It's a great idea, but I've never negotiated anything except salary with any success. I feel like if the hiring manager has made it clear that the budget is set, then that's a great time to try and negotiate other benefits. Let us know how it goes!

No, the match is usually automated - it would be a weird ask and an administrative nightmare for them to make an exception

I've never heard of this happening, to be honest. Every company I've worked for had a set amount for every employee. I guess you could try but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Perhaps try negotiating the vesting period. But the % seems unlikely.
They are bound by certain rules such as Safe Harbor, etc, they could possibly mess up their compliance if lots of people negotiated favorable terms
