Clinical Data Scientist (Confidential Biotech | Oncology Focus)

Remote (U.S.) | Competitive Base of up to $190,000 (DOE) + Equity

We're partnering with a rapidly scaling, mission-driven biotech that is quietly redefining how clinical trials are executed in oncology.

This organization sits at the intersection of real-world clinical practice, AI-powered data extraction, and modern trial design-building a more efficient and representative path to drug development.

They're now hiring Clinical Data Scientists who want to move beyond traditional study support and play a direct role in shaping next-generation clinical data pipelines.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Work on real-world, messy clinical data-not just clean trial datasets
  • Direct influence on how AI/NLP outputs are validated and improved
  • High ownership in a scaling, high-demand environment
  • Opportunity to help define data standards from study inception
  • Mission-driven focus: accelerating oncology drug development and expanding trial access

What You'll Actually Do

  • Transform raw, abstracted, and AI-processed data into CDISC SDTM/ADaM datasets
  • Program tables, listings, and figures (TLFs) using SAS, R, or Python
  • Investigate and resolve data inconsistencies across fragmented sources
  • Define data dictionaries and standards pre-study kickoff
  • Perform rigorous QC and produce regulatory-grade documentation (Define.xml, reviewer guides)
  • Partner with AI teams to create feedback loops that improve model accuracy
  • Support ad hoc clinical and exploratory analyses
  • Ensure all work aligns with HIPAA-compliant data handling practices

What They're Looking For

  • 2-5+ years in Clinical Data Science, Statistical Programming, or Clinical Data Management
  • Strong experience with CDISC (SDTM/ADaM)
  • Proficiency in SAS, R, Python, and/or SQL
  • Background in pharma or biotech (oncology or real-world data strongly preferred)
  • Experience working with imperfect, multi-source clinical data-sets
  • Detail-oriented with a strong instinct for data quality and validation

The Bigger Picture

This team is building a system where:

  • AI handles upstream abstraction from unstructured records
  • Clinical Data Scientists own the final mile: transformation, validation, and delivery

If you've ever been frustrated by siloed workflows or limited visibility into how data is generated-this is your chance to work in a more integrated, modern environment.

If you're interested in learning more (confidentially), feel free to reach out directly.
