  • Experience leading UAT and database validation activities
  • Strong knowledge of GCP, FDA, ICH, and applicable clinical data management regulations
  • Experience with data cleaning, query management, reconciliation, and database lock activities
  • Experience working with CROs, external vendors, and cross-functional study teams
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with exceptional attention to detail
  • Ability to work independently and manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced startup environment
  • Proficiency with Excel and/or Smartsheet for study tracking and reporting

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience supporting cardiovascular, vascular, or catheter-based medical device studies
  • Experience serving as the lead data manager for a clinical study or program
  • Experience supporting global, multi-site clinical studies
  • Familiarity with data visualization and reporting tools such as Power BI, Tableau, Spotfire, or JMP
    Experience supporting early feasibility, first-in-human, and pivotal clinical studies

What We're Looking For
  • A hands-on Clinical Data Manager who can independently lead study-level data management activities from startup through database lock
  • Strong technical understanding of EDC database build, validation, and study startup activities
  • Comfortable operating with a high degree of ownership and accountability
