The role requires a combination of technical depth in SQL and Python, working familiarity with statistical methods applicable to program performance analysis, and an orientation toward clear, audience-appropriate communication. Experience in pharma, pharma consulting, at a health insurer, or at a PBM is required: this work depends on understanding how specialty programs function, how manufacturers define success, and how data from hub operations connects to the broader access and reimbursement landscape.
