Delivery and Prioritization: Maintain a clear Jira backlog across requests, enhancements, launches and incidents; assess impact and dependencies, drive requirements discussions, track decisions and guide cutovers, hypercare and post-release reviews for smooth, predictable delivery. Cross-Team and Vendor Connectivity: Collaborate with Trade and Distribution, Market Access, Commercial Operations, Decision Science, Reporting and Insights, CRM, IT and external data providers on definitions, interfaces, delivery schedules and ownership; translate technical issues into business terms and actions. Sustainable Operations and Compliance: Maintain mappings, data dictionaries, runbooks and validation evidence; mature monitoring and automation while applying access, privacy (including HIPAA) and contractual controls to sensitive commercial and patient-level data. Third-Party Data Aggregation Leadership: Serve as the business and operational lead for the external data aggregation partner, overseeing end-to-end aggregation across participating providers; establish delivery standards, governance, quality expectations and service levels; manage onboarding and feed changes; monitor performance; lead issue escalation and root-cause resolution; ensure aggregated outputs are accurate, timely, complete, compliant and fit for downstream use.

Pipeline troubleshooting: Working knowledge of Python for validation or automation, Airflow or comparable orchestration for diagnosing schedules and failures, and dbt or comparable transformation tooling for models, tests, dependencies and deployment. Engineering and architecture: Ability to trace data end to end across files, ingestion, curated layers and downstream consumers; read existing code, technical designs, mappings and architecture diagrams; assess change impacts before release. Commercial data knowledge: Experience with pharmaceutical commercial data, including specialty pharmacy, patient services, specialty distribution or trade feeds, and an understanding of how quality and refresh timing affect business users. Delivery and collaboration: Experience writing requirements, acceptance criteria and validation evidence, managing concurrent work and incidents in Jira or a similar tool, and working independently with business, technology and vendor teams. Desirable Skills/Experience: Specialty and distribution data: Knowledge of patient referral, status, dispense and shipment data; wholesaler inventory and shipment feeds, including 852/867; and vendor corrections and reconciliations.

Broader commercial data: Familiarity with patient data, claims, CRM, HCP/HCO master data, roster and territory alignment, and vendors or platforms such as Veeva, IQVIA and Komodo. Rare disease experience: Experience in rare disease or specialty medicine markets, where small patient populations make specialty pharmacy and patient hub data especially important. Advanced analytics and AI enablement: Experience preparing reliable inputs for data models, patient or HCP analytics, scoring and alerts; validating model outputs and production data flows with Decision Science teams; or using AI assisted tools to improve data quality and operational troubleshooting.
