WHAT YOU’LL DO:
- Apply your oncology expertise to create and curate specialized terminology for cancer diagnoses, staging systems, treatment protocols, biomarkers, and emerging precision medicine concepts.
- Conduct research using medical journals and clinically valid sources to support terminology development and proactive content creation for evolving oncology needs.
- Populate and maintain complex, highly specialized terminology datasets using your medical knowledge and clinical experience.
- Create new terms and map them to standard terminologies (e.g., SNOMED CT, ICD-O, RxNorm, LOINC), including analysis, QA, and customer communication.
- Collaborate with clinical informaticists, product teams, and healthcare organizations to ensure oncology content meets real-world documentation and quality reporting needs.
- Provide clinical expertise for customer inquiries and requests, including direct communication when needed.
- Review updates to standardized terminologies and assess impacts on IMO Health content and products; perform maintenance and mapping updates as appropriate.
- Partner with sales and marketing teams to demonstrate clinical value of terminology solutions to prospective healthcare systems and cancer centers.
- Perform data analysis and discovery using database tools, including writing SQL queries.
- Maintain and expand your clinical knowledge to increase impact and effectiveness.
- Assess feasibility and level of effort for projects under guidance of technical leads.
- Identify, evaluate, and execute quality or process improvement initiatives.
WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
- Medical degree (M.D. or D.O.) specializing in oncology (U.S. or international).
- Residency or equivalent clinical experience required; 5+ years clinical experience strongly preferred.
- Formal informatics training strongly preferred; 5+ years informatics experience a plus.
- M.S. in Informatics preferred.
- Experience with standardized clinical vocabularies (SNOMED CT, ICD-O, RxNorm, LOINC) strongly preferred.
- Excellent command of English and American medical terminology; familiarity with international vocabularies a plus.
- SQL skills a strong plus.
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills.
- Passion for language precision and nuanced meaning.
- Self-motivated, detail-oriented, and able to see the big picture.
- Continuous improvement mindset with curiosity to ask “why.”
- Ability to apply learning across different scenarios.
- Willingness to lead projects and acquire new skills over time.

What We Do
We are a team of dedicated clinical terminologists, data scientists, industry subject matter experts, and informaticists who helped facilitate the evolution from analogue to digital capture of clinical events, the precise code-mapping that simplifies complex workflows, and the translation of unstructured into structured data. We “wrote the digital dictionary” used in every major EHR, and we are leveraging clinical AI to generate insights that expand and deepen our impact across the healthcare ecosystem.
At the end of the day, we don’t make decisions for our clients. We provide them with the digital tools to enable sound decision-making.
Why Work With Us
We are building a clinical intelligence stack—medical ontology, human expertise, and AI—that makes data more useful and more powerful. By enhancing data’s structure, richness, and precision, we reduce noise and error, streamline complexity, and create clarity across the clinical information chain.
