In this role, you will:

Provide expert methodological guidance to study teams on complex study design, analysis strategies and quantitative decision-making across programs.

Lead the development and implementation of innovative statistical approaches, such as estimand frameworks, trial simulations, covariate adjustment strategies, model-based projections and quantitative go/no-go frameworks.

Translate methodological insights into scalable solutions, including templates, training, open-source tools and best practices that strengthen analytical excellence across the organization.

Support portfolio-level analyses, scenario modeling and quantitative frameworks that inform clinical strategy, optimize development decisions and enable evidence-based prioritization.

You are recognized as a technical expert and trusted thought partner, with the ability to translate complex methodology into clear recommendations for scientific, clinical and cross-functional stakeholders.

You have experience contributing to internal standards, capability building, training or strategic initiatives, and you enjoy mentoring others to strengthen methodological understanding and adoption.

You bring a collaborative and inclusive mindset, show respect for cultural differences in a global environment, and ideally have a track record of publications, presentations or thought leadership in emerging areas such as AI/ML, real-world data integration or predictive biomarkers.
