• Apply AWS services (Glue, Lambda, S3) to support the development and maintenance of scalable data solutions.
• Translate business requirements into technical specifications and mock-ups, applying best practices and an enterprise mindset.
• Support automation and innovation efforts by leveraging GenAI tools and scalable frameworks to enhance analytics delivery.
• Contribute to data quality efforts by applying and enhancing existing QC frameworks to ensure reliability and consistency across domains.
• Partner with cross-functional teams—including data engineering, forecasting, and therapeutic area leads—to align on business rules and metric definitions used in building patient journey, market access, and adherence solutions.
• Assist in data strategy activities such as brand planning, data budget forecasting, and Statement of Work (SoW) management.
• Ensure adherence to data access protocols and compliance standards, especially when working with sensitive patient-level data.
