Responsibilities
- Take the questions that growth, strategy, and clinical teams need answered and design, plan, and execute the health-outcomes analyses that answer them, using biometric, claims, and clinical data for both internal and external audiences.
- Apply modern AI tools (e.g., LLM-based assistants) in your day-to-day workflow to accelerate literature review, analysis, code, and manuscript drafting, with demonstrated proficiency, not just familiarity.
- Conduct literature reviews, run the analyses, and prepare manuscripts for peer-reviewed journals and clinical white papers, carrying work from concept to submission.
- Apply methods such as multilevel/mixed-effects modeling, survival analysis, case-control difference in difference, budget impact analysis, and clustering (e.g., K-means, DBSCAN) to complex, time-series, and nested data structures.
- Partner with growth, strategy, and clinical teams to generate the economic and clinical evidence that supports enterprise sales, client retention, and value-based care contracting.
- Work fluently with medical and pharmacy claims to quantify utilization, cost, and savings outcomes.
- Monitor pipelines for measurement fidelity and quality, and curate and prepare biometric, claims, and clinical data for analysis.
- Cook up evidence and reporting projects across product, marketing, engineering, and business development, providing the project-management structure that keeps multi-stakeholder work on track.

- Proven ability to take a business question and independently carry it to a published result: scoping, analyzing, and delivering with minimal oversight.

- Ability to translate technical findings into clear, persuasive insight for non-technical executives, commercial, and external audiences.
