The Role & Your Impact

• Hands-on Engineering & Development
• Design and develop high-end reports and interactive applications using R and R Shiny to support clinical trial monitoring, planned analyses, and deep-dive data exploration.
• Identify and implement technical innovations, leading initiatives from initial Proof of Concept (PoC) to full business adoption, ensuring measurable value and increased efficiency.

Operational Excellence & Innovation

• Drive the continuous improvement of technical processes and workflows in close collaboration with Biometry leadership.
• Establish and champion "best-in-class" practices for coding standards, version control, and automation.
• Serve as the Business Owner for the Posit platform, ensuring our infrastructure remains cutting-edge by staying ahead of emerging technologies in Data Science.

Strategic & Cross-Functional Partnership

• Partner with Clinical Science, Data Management, and Biostatistics to prioritize high-impact technical initiatives.
• Act as the primary technical interface to IT for all Biometry innovation topics.
• Champion the adoption of modern programming languages (e.g., R, Python) and mentor the team through targeted training and knowledge sharing.

Leadership & People Development

Lead and inspire a dedicated team of technical specialists (R/Shiny developers, data scientists, and statistical programmers) focused on innovation.

Your Skills & Experience

We are looking for a strategic thinker who isn't afraid to get their hands dirty with code. The ideal candidate brings:

• Proven ability to oversee statistical analyses using clinical trial data (SDTM and ADaM) with a firm grasp of regulatory-compliant processes.
• Expert-level R programming (far beyond the basics of dplyr and ggplot2).
• Proven track record in building professional-grade Shiny applications for clinical visualization and review.
• Proficiency in creating reproducible research via RMarkdown and/or Quarto.

Strategic Leadership

• 3+ years of experience leading complex technical projects.
• The authority to act as a technical lead: challenging requirements, managing trade-offs, and defending innovative approaches to IT and senior stakeholders.
• Familiarity with cloud ecosystems (e.g., AWS) is a significant plus.
• Advanced English proficiency with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to non-technical audiences.

What We Offer

• Top-Tier Culture: A friendly, collaborative atmosphere
• Up to 2 days per week of remote work.
