About the Role
The Data Strategy & Analytics Specialist contributes to the design and execution of data strategies and analyses that enable decision-making and insight generation across a therapeutic area or molecule portfolio. Working under the Data Strategy & Analytics Lead, you will partner with cross-functional teams—translating scientific protocols into robust analytical code, cohort extractions, and reproducible pipelines using multi-modal real-world data and clinical assets. You will also contribute to the translation of scientific and business needs into analytical frameworks and data-driven solutions. This role demands strong core data science skills, analytical execution, and a growth mindset to continuously elevate team standards.
Responsibilities
- Execute data transformations, cohort extractions, and descriptive/observational analyses leveraging real-world (EHR, Claims, etc.), clinical trial data for secondary use, and operational multi-modal domains.
- Translate analytical or study requirements into cohort definitions, derived variables, and analysis-ready datasets.
- Follow state-of-the-art coding best practices, version control, unit testing, and structured QC routines to guarantee fully reproducible analytical pipelines.
- Summarize and visualize exploratory analytical outputs, cohort characteristics, and study results to communicate findings effectively to project teams.
- Partner seamlessly with RWD Scientists and cross-functional study leads during study framing and protocol development, providing active feedback on data availability, feasibility, methodology, and execution.
- Actively contribute well-documented code snippets, analytical templates, and learnings to the internal team repository.
- Assist in identifying fit-for-purpose real-world data (RWD) sources, performing data quality evaluations, terminology mappings, and schema transformations for secondary data use.
- Partner with study teams and central data engineering functions to gather analysis requirements, specify derived variables (e.g., ADaM, ARDs), and shape clinical trial datamarts for secondary use.
- Collaborate with central data engineering and governance teams to guide multi-modal data integration, applying common data models (OMOP, CDISC) and structured mappings across clinical trial and real-world assets.
- Collaborate with internal partners to analyze data structures, document data lineage, and maintain structured, compliant, and accessible data assets to support long-term data strategy and reusability.
- Safely leverage modern AI coding tools and LLM assistants (e.g., Claude Code, Copilot) to accelerate scripting, query building, and data extraction while maintaining scientific rigor and code quality.
Requirements
- Hold a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Informatics, Life Sciences, Computer Science, or a related field.
- Have 2+ years of experience working with structured data in a research or healthcare setting.
- Possess solid working knowledge of R or Python, as well as SQL.
- Understand data dictionaries, mappings, or metadata tagging.
- Be familiar with data systems used in clinical or operational settings.
- Demonstrate capacity for independent thinking and ability to make decisions based upon sound principles.
- Exhibit excellent strategic agility including problem-solving and critical thinking skills, and agility that extends beyond the technical domain.
- Demonstrate respect for cultural differences when interacting with colleagues in the global workplace.
- Possess excellent verbal and written communication skills, specifically in the areas of presentation and writing, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts in clear language.
