• Experience: Minimum 2 years of hands‑on experience designing and executing robust statistical analyses for health‑care or pharmaceutical research.
• Technical Skills: Proficiency in statistical programming languages such as R or Python, and familiarity with SQL for data extraction.
• Data Management: Demonstrated ability to work with large, heterogeneous data sets from multiple sources (claims, EMR, registries, etc.) while ensuring data integrity and confidentiality.
• Statistical Knowledge: Strong foundation in regression models, clustering, decision trees, machine learning, survival analysis, and longitudinal data analysis.
• Visualization Tools: Experience with at least one BI platform (Power BI, Tableau, Spotfire, Alteryx) to create clear, actionable dashboards.
• Regulatory Awareness: Understanding of clinical data standards (ICD‑9/10, SNOMED CT, Read Codes) and compliance requirements for real‑world evidence generation.
• Communication: Ability to translate complex analytical results into concise, business‑focused narratives for both technical and non‑technical audiences.

Preferred Qualifications

• Advanced degree (PhD, MSc) in Biostatistics, Epidemiology, Health Economics, or a related quantitative field.
• Experience with electronic medical records (EMR) systems, health‑information exchanges, or claims data platforms.
• Familiarity with Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and regulatory guidelines for real‑world evidence studies (e.g., FDA RWE framework, EMA guidelines).
• Hands‑on experience with Bayesian modeling, hierarchical models, or advanced machine‑learning techniques for health‑care data.
• Knowledge of data‑privacy regulations (HIPAA, GDPR) and practical experience implementing de‑identification and data‑security protocols.
• Proficiency in additional analytics tools such as SAS, STATA, or Spark for large‑scale data processing.
• Track record of publishing or presenting findings in peer‑reviewed journals or industry conferences.
