Key Responsibilities

• Data Integration & Normalization
  
  • Collaborate with data engineering and product teams to ingest and normalize data from multiple sources (EHRs, 3rd party aggregators, benefit verification systems, etc.).
    
  • Ensure data quality, consistency, and completeness across all reporting pipelines.
    
  • Data Modeling & Infrastructure
    
    • Working with the data engineering team, design and maintain scalable data models that support evolving reporting needs across MVP and future phases.
      
    • Analytical Support
      
      • Partner with the Senior Reporting Leader to define KPIs and metrics aligned with strategic goals (e.g., time to therapy, BI/BV/PA approval and accuracy rates, user engagement).

          What Makes This Role Unique
          
          • Strategic Impact: You will be the data engine behind a platform that could define the future of medical benefit drug access-an area with no current industry leader.
            
          • Greenfield Opportunity: With no legacy systems to constrain you, you'll help build the data architecture from the ground up.
            
          • High Visibility: Your work will directly support executive decision-making and be showcased to top-tier biopharma clients.
            
          • Collaborative Innovation: You'll work alongside a senior analytics leader and, soon, a visualization specialist to create a best-in-class insights engine-not just dashboards.
            
            
            Candidate must be based in the metropolitan area of our hub city Columbus, OH. Position will primarily allow for remote working.
