The ideal candidate should have hands-on experience with Medidata Rave or other eClinical platforms and should understand clinical data management processes, CRF design, edit checks, visit schedules, coding setup, external data integration, and study-specific database configuration.
Essential Functions and Responsibilities
Study Database Build and Configuration
  • Build and configure study databases in Medidata Rave or other eClinical platforms based on protocol, CRF specifications, data management plan, and sponsor requirements.

  • Support setup of study-specific workflows, roles, permissions, user groups, sites, countries, and access controls.
  • Configure standard and study-specific data entry rules, validation checks, and system behavior.
  • Support setup or configuration of coding dictionaries, external data transfers, lab data, eCOA/ePRO, RTSM/IWRS, or other integrated systems as applicable.

Edit Check Programming and Validation
  • Develop and maintain edit checks, derivations, dynamics, and custom functions according to approved specifications.
  • Review edit check specifications and provide technical input to ensure checks are clear, accurate, and programmable.
  • Perform unit testing and support independent validation of database configuration and edit checks.
  • Resolve database build defects identified during testing, UAT, or production use.
  • Maintain documentation of build changes, testing evidence, and issue resolution.

CRF and Specification Support
  • Review clinical protocol and CRF design requirements.
  • Support development or review of CRF specifications, edit check specifications, data validation specifications, and database build documentation.
  • Identify inconsistencies among protocol requirements, CRFs, edit checks, and database configuration.
  • Collaborate with data managers, clinical teams, programmers, vendors, and sponsors to clarify requirements.

UAT and Production Support
  • Support user acceptance testing, including test script development, test execution, defect tracking, and resolution.
  • Assist study teams with database-related questions during study startup, conduct, and closeout.
  • Troubleshoot production database issues and implement approved changes through change control.
  • Support mid-study updates, amendments, migration activities, and post-production database changes.
  • Ensure all database changes are properly documented, tested, reviewed, and approved.

Quality and Compliance
  • Follow applicable SOPs, work instructions, validation procedures, and study-specific requirements.
  • Ensure database build activities comply with GCP, 21 CFR Part 11, audit trail expectations, and applicable regulatory requirements.
  • Maintain clear documentation for system configuration, testing, validation, and change control.
  • Support audits, inspections, and sponsor requests related to database build and eClinical system configuration.

Requirements
  • Bachelor's degree in life sciences, computer science, information systems, statistics, data management, or a related field.
  • Hands-on experience building clinical study databases in Medidata Rave, Rave EDC, or similar eClinical systems.

  • Good understanding of clinical trial processes and clinical data management activities.
  • Familiarity with GCP, 21 CFR Part 11, and computerized system validation principles.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to follow specifications and controlled processes.
  • Good communication skills and ability to work with data management, clinical operations, programming, QA, vendors, and sponsor teams.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with multiple therapeutic areas and global clinical trials.
  • Experience supporting Phase I to Phase III studies.
  • Experience with external data integration, lab data, ePRO/eCOA, RTSM/IWRS, safety systems, or central monitoring systems.
  • Experience with CDISC SDTM concepts or downstream data mapping requirements.
  • Experience supporting audits, database validation, or study migration activities.
  • Experience working in a CRO, pharmaceutical, biotech, or clinical technology environment.

Technical Skills
