Reimagining the infrastructure of cancer care.
The Role
We're looking for a Clinical Data Specialist to help us accomplish our mission to improve and extend lives by learning from the experience of every person with cancer. Are you ready to be the next changemaker in cancer care?
Flatiron Health is a healthtech company using data for good to power smarter care for every person with cancer, around the world. Flatiron partners with cancer centres in the US, Europe and Asia to transform patients' real-life experiences into real-world evidence and create a more modern, connected oncology ecosystem. Our multidisciplinary teams include oncologists, data scientists, software engineers, epidemiologists, product experts and more. Flatiron Health is an independent affiliate of the Roche Group.
What You'll Do
In this role, you will be responsible for working within the clinical team to execute on and further develop our end-to-end abstraction processes. Abstraction involves extracting complex unstructured clinical data from electronic medical records using our proprietary abstraction software, ensuring high quality data that benefit cancer patients and researchers. In this role you will:
  • Develop and update data curation instruction documents as well as data capture forms for multiple solid and/or haematologic malignancies
  • Support data quality and control activities, including maintenance and improvement of existing QA processes, clarifying guidance, correcting errors and refining abstraction instructions in order to build up and maintain high quality data sets
  • Serve as an internal advisor, advising cross-functional stakeholders on clinical matters within your disease area(s)
  • Plan feasibility and initial testing of novel data points or new abstraction approaches
  • Contribute to product development by synthesizing data and feedback to provide insights about the abstraction process (e.g., to support development of our abstraction tool and leverage machine learning and automatisation)
  • Support quality assurance on dataset deliverables and data analyses
  • Collaborate with a cross-functional team including technical (e.g., software engineering, data science), product managers, product designers, data privacy experts, quantitative scientists, and clinical professionals.
  • Weigh tradeoffs (e.g., upside/downside for different options) and clearly communicate data-driven recommendations to influence cross-functional stakeholders
  • Provide clinical experience to support the processing and harmonisation of structured data points

Who You Are
You're a kind, passionate and collaborative problem-solver who values the opportunity to think beyond the way things are. In addition, you're a team player with experience in clinical and/or data documentation experience in the oncology/haematology space. Furthermore:
  • You are certified as an oncology nurse, physician, pharmacist or allied clinical professional, or have a comparable professional education (e.g. a bachelor's or master's degree in health sciences, biology, molecular medicine, or a related applied science)
  • You are familiar with all aspects of how cancer is managed, from diagnosis until cessation of treatment, and fluent in cancer terminology and general medical terminology
  • You have experience with the presentation of clinical data and the treatment pathways in oncology care
  • You have familiarity with electronic health record systems, electronic data capture forms, or other data management systems
  • You have strong communication skills, including the ability to communicate clinical issues effectively with a diverse team of software engineers, product managers, and other technical staff
  • You demonstrate exceptional attention to detail but you are also pragmatic in the search for solutions
  • You enjoy working in a fast-paced, cross functional and international environment and are able to react with flexibility to ambiguity
  • You are fluent in English

Optional
  • You have experience interacting with large language models (LLMs) in a professional context

Who We Are
Our people are at the center of everything we do. We strive to foster a culture where our teammates feel equipped and empowered to make meaningful contributions with confidence, compassion, and clarity.
