  • Expertise in Python, R, SQL, Spark, and deep learning frameworks like TensorFlow or PyTorch.
  • Experience working with EHR (Epic, Cerner), claims databases, HL7, FHIR, OMOP, or other healthcare data standards.
  • Strong understanding of biostatistics, epidemiology, and healthcare economics.
  • Familiarity with regulatory and compliance frameworks (HIPAA, GDPR, FDA guidelines for AI/ML in healthcare).
  • Proficiency in cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) for handling large-scale healthcare datasets.
  • Experience with NLP for medical text processing is a plus.
  • Ability to work in a cross-functional team and communicate findings to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Prior experience in pharmaceutical, biotech, or health-tech startups.
