Job Summary:
This role will support a growing portfolio of oncology research initiatives, with a focus on observational clinical validity studies in minimal residual disease (MRD), alongside investigator-initiated studies, registries, and clinical utility programs. This role will support end-to-end study execution, ensuring high-quality, compliant conduct and maintaining data and biospecimen integrity, with a strong emphasis on data-sample concordance in biomarker-driven research.

Job Responsibilities:
  • Serve as the primary operational contact for external study sites, investigators, and collaborators, proactively managing site engagement, performance, and issue resolution across observational and non-interventional research studies.

  • Oversee study execution to ensure adherence to protocols, study plans, and applicable regulatory and ethical requirements (including human subjects research protections).

  • Conduct remote monitoring activities appropriate for observational studies, including review of study documentation, data quality checks, and verification of protocol and data collection adherence.

  • Identify, document, and escalate protocol deviations, data discrepancies, and compliance risks; partner with cross-functional teams to implement corrective and preventive actions.

  • Support study startup activities, including site feasibility, onboarding, and activation of external collaborators, with emphasis on data and biospecimen collection capabilities.

  • Lead cross-functional coordination across clinical, laboratory operations, medical, research, bioinformatics, and data management teams to ensure alignment on study timelines, deliverables, and milestones.

  • Contribute to the development and operationalization of study protocols, statistical analysis plans (as applicable), and data and biospecimen collection workflows.

  • Oversee biospecimen lifecycle management, including tracking, shipment, receipt, and documentation, ensuring chain of custody, traceability, and protocol compliance.

  • Ensure integrity and alignment across biospecimens, clinical data, and associated metadata, with a strong focus on data-sample concordance critical to MRD and biomarker-driven studies.

  • Coordinate secure data and metadata transfers (e.g., IMS, secure portals, cloud-based systems), ensuring completeness, accuracy, and proper documentation.

  • Monitor study progress, including enrollment, sample accrual, and site performance metrics, proactively identifying risks to data quality, completeness, and timelines.

  • Maintain study documentation, including study files, trackers, communication logs, and applicable regulatory documentation.

  • Organize and lead project meetings, investigator calls, and cross-functional updates; document and track action items and follow-ups.

  • Support IRB submissions, protocol amendments, and regulatory documentation to ensure ongoing compliance.

  • Collaborate with data management and analytics teams to support data quality review, query resolution, and reporting/dashboard development.

  • Identify workflow gaps and drive process improvements to enhance consistency, scalability, and operational excellence across the oncology evidence generation portfolio.

  • Take ownership of assigned studies, driving end-to-end execution, operational performance, and proactively managing risks related to data quality, sample integrity, timelines, and stakeholder expectations

Minimum Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in life sciences, health sciences, nursing, or a related scientific discipline.

  • 5 or more years of experience as a Clinical Research Associate (CRA) or in a comparable clinical research role.

  • 3 or more years experience supporting observational and/or interventional clinical studies in industry, CRO, or academic medical center settings.

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Master's degree in life sciences, health sciences, or a related scientific discipline.

  • 3 or more years experience in oncology, precision medicine, molecular diagnostics, or biomarker-driven clinical research.

  • 2 or more years experience with genomics, next-generation sequencing (NGS), circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), and/or minimal residual disease (MRD) testing.

  • 2 or more years experience supporting observational studies, patient registries, real-world evidence programs, or decentralized research models.

  • 2 or more years experience coordinating research biospecimen collection, shipment, tracking, and reconciliation across multi-site studies.

Additional Job Standards:
  • Working knowledge of GCP, ICH-GCP, FDA regulations, human subjects protections, and applicable clinical research requirements.

  • Demonstrated ability to manage study timelines, compliance, data quality, and competing priorities across multiple projects and study sites.

  • Experience collaborating with external investigators, research partners, and cross-functional teams to support study execution.

  • Strong organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to identify and mitigate study risks.

  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office, Teams, SharePoint, Smartsheet, or similar tracking and collaboration tools.

  • Experience supporting audits, inspections, regulatory activities, and data quality review processes.
