- Build, package, and evolve modular analytics solutions for core commercial use cases (e.g., HCP segmentation, patient journey analytics, omnichannel ROI).
- Lead the development of reusable SQL/PySpark pipelines, dashboards, and custom tools to accelerate insights and enhance team efficiency.
- Champion best-in-class data QA, governance, documentation, and reproducibility practices.
- Manage, mentor, and grow a team of data scientists and data engineers.
- Set team priorities and staffing plans across client engagements, pitches, and R&D initiatives.

- Deep expertise in U.S. healthcare data (e.g., claims, EMR, MMIT, IQVIA, Symphony, Komodo)
- Proficient in SQL; experience with analytic development in Snowflake, Redshift, or similar platforms
- Robust knowledge of data engineering in pharma, with a track record of working within regulatory constraints (e.g., HIPAA)
- Familiarity with scripting and data frameworks (e.g., PySpark, Python, dbt, Airflow)
- Strong client presence, slide-writing, and insight communication skills
