• Hands-on experience with machine learning, AI, and deep learning frameworks (e.g., scikit-learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch).
• Knowledge of NLP techniques and libraries (e.g., spaCy, NLTK, transformers).
• Familiarity with big data technologies (e.g., Hadoop, Spark) and cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure).
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently and collaboratively.
• Excellent communication skills to present findings clearly to non-technical stakeholders.

Nice to Have

• Experience working in a clinical trials or regulatory environment.
• Understanding healthcare standards (e.g., HL7, FHIR, ICD codes).
• Prior exposure to real-world evidence (RWE) and real-world data (RWD) projects.

What We Offer

• Flexible work hours to accommodate your schedule.
• Opportunity to work on impactful healthcare projects.
• Collaborative and supportive team environment.
