Job Title: Data Scientist II
Duration: 2 Years
Remote
What are the top 3-5 skills, experience or education required for this position:
Training/education in relevant fields such as statistics, epidemiology, HEOR and master degree or above would be preferredProficiency in SAS, R, Python, shell scripting or other programming languages, data mining skills using SQLRelative experience on using patients level data on RWE production would be a big plusAbility to effectively communicate complex analytical and technical concepts with clarity, both written and oral.
Purpose:
Role is responsible for designing, planning, and executing analytical components of plans for research studies that examine the value of pharmaceutical assets or address strategic questions in the disease areas of interest. Position applies methodological and analytical expertise to conduct or consult on the analysis of RWE studies. This involves the application of statistical theories, methods, and technical programming skills to analyze clinical, survey, claims, and electronic medical record databases. Role supports the department as a technical subject matter expert on RWE analytics; he/she is expected to act as point of contact for the assigned therapeutic area (TA) on analytical needs, proactively mitigating, resolving and triaging issues and reducing the operational complexity needed. He/she is expected to standardize coding convention, processes and protocol translations to increase efficiency.
Responsibilities:
