SAAMA internal position

About Saama

Saama is an AI and advanced analytics company built for life sciences. Best known for the AI-powered clinical platform that supported the trial behind the world's first COVID-19 vaccine, Saama works with many of the top 20 pharmaceutical companies and a large base of emerging biotech. Alongside our clinical development portfolio, we operate a growing Commercial business — spanning commercial data platforms, master data management, advanced BI, and our Analytics for Commercial Excellence (ACE) solution family — serving marketing, sales, market access, and patient services organizations.

We are hiring a senior leader to own and scale that Commercial business.

The Consulting Practice Leader serves as the primary Subject Matter Expert (SME) and strategic advisor on healthcare provider data for a enterprise-level hospital system client. In this ongoing role, you will bridge the gap between technical data engineering teams, clinical informatics, enterprise analytics, and executive business partners. You will design, govern, and optimize healthcare provider data assets—ensuring data products, reference data models, and Subject Area Data Models align with clinical operations, credentialing, revenue cycle, and digital health initiatives.

Key Responsibilities

1. Enterprise Data Product & Domain Strategy

• Lead the definition, development, and governance of core Provider Data Products (e.g., Provider 360, Master Provider Index/EMPI, Practitioner Directory, Provider Network & Alignment, Provider Roster Management).
• Define domain-specific data architectures and data lifecycle strategies across clinical, administrative, credentialing, and billing domains.
• Establish data product ownership models, domain definitions, and lifecycle management frameworks for provider-centric data assets.

2. Subject Area & Industry Data Modeling

• Architect and refine Provider Subject Area Data Models across key domains: Provider Master Data, Credentialing & Privileging, Network/Payer Contracts, Scheduling/Availability, Provider Attribution, and Clinical Performance.
• Guide the adoption and customization of standard industry data models and frameworks (e.g., HL7 FHIR Practitioner/PractitionerRole resources, OMOP CDM, CAQH standards, and vendor enterprise models such as Epic Clarity/Caboodle provider schemas or Cerner CCL).
• Standardize reference data, taxonomy mappings, and code sets across the health system (e.g., NPI, NUCC Provider Taxonomy, State License IDs, CAQH, Provider Specialty Groups).

3. Client Advisory & Cross-Functional Alignment

• Serve as the trusted advisor to hospital system executives (CDO, CIO, Chief Medical Officer, VP of Revenue Cycle) on provider data strategy and data quality initiatives.
• Drive cross-departmental alignment between Provider Enrollment, Medical Staff Services, Clinical Operations, IT/Data Engineering, and Managed Care Contracting.
• Establish and facilitate data governance bodies specific to Provider Data Quality, Stewardship, and Integration.

4. Data Governance, Quality & Stewardship

• Implement data quality frameworks, stewardship workflows, and automated validation pipelines tailored to complex provider entities (individual vs. organizational providers, affiliations, locations, and panel capacities).
• Establish MDM (Master Data Management) and Identity Resolution protocols to solve multi-source provider duplicate, merge, and alignment issues across disparate systems.
