  • Ensure data compatibility and compliance with industry standards such as HL7, FHIR, ICH M11, and others.
  • Implement security controls, encryption mechanisms, redaction logic, and access management policies to protect sensitive data from unauthorized access, breaches, and cyber threats.
  • Monitor compliance with healthcare regulations such as HIPAA, GDPR, and other data privacy laws, and implement measures to address potential risks and vulnerabilities.
  • Continuously monitor ETL job performance and make necessary adjustments to improve speed and reliability.
  • Document data flow designs, technical specifications, and operational procedures to facilitate knowledge transfer and support ongoing maintenance and enhancements.
  • Proactively identify and address potential bottlenecks and challenges in data processing workflows.
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams including data mangers, clinical leads, statisticians, statistical programmers, researchers, DigitalX members, and regulatory experts to understand requirements and priorities for clinical data management and analysis.
