Weekend Biostatistics Mph Jobs (NOW HIRING)

At Caris, we understand that cancer is an ugly word—a word no one wants to hear, but one that connects us all. That’s why we’re not just transforming cancer care—we’re changing lives. We introduced precision medicine to the world and built an industry around the idea that every patient deserves answers as unique as their DNA. Backed by cutting‑edge molecular science and AI, we ask ourselves every day: “What would I do if this patient were my mom?” That question drives everything we do. But our mission doesn’t stop with cancer. We're pushing the frontiers of medicine and leading a revolution in healthcare—driven by innovation, compassion, and purpose. Join us in our mission to improve the human condition across multiple diseases. If you're passionate about meaningful work and want to be part of something bigger than yourself, Caris is where your impact begins.

• Establish quality assurance and quality control frameworks and a maintained data dictionary, emphasizing proactive, reproducible validation.
• Serve as the claims subject‑matter expert in technical discussions with partners and prospective customers.
• Support analytics and feasibility deliverables that demonstrate the value of combined claims and molecular data.
• Partner with clinical and data product teams to harmonize claims with electronic medical record and pathology sources.
• Contribute to customer education, training, and documentation for real‑world data.

Required Qualifications

• Advanced degree (PhD, MSc, or MPH) in epidemiology, biostatistics, health economics and outcomes research, health informatics, or a related field; or equivalent demonstrable experience.
• 5+ years working hands‑on with administrative claims data (for example, medical and pharmacy claims, open and closed claims) in a real‑world evidence or healthcare analytics setting.
• Demonstrated expertise building claims‑derived variables, including line of therapy, treatment episodes, comorbidity indices, and outcome and mortality endpoints.
• Experience with claims‑to‑clinical or claims‑to‑molecular linkage, tokenization, and HIPAA‑compliant data handling.
• Strong programming skills (SQL and Python or R) and a rigorous data quality‑control discipline.
• Strong communication skills for technical discussions with partners and customers.
• Proficient in Microsoft Office Suite, specifically Word, Excel, Outlook, and general working knowledge of Internet for business use.

Preferred Qualifications

• Oncology real‑world‑evidence experience, and familiarity with electronic medical record and molecular diagnostics data.
• Familiarity with de‑identification and expert determination, data governance, and dataset versioning.
• Experience supporting data partnerships or real‑world evidence study delivery.
