Senior Manager, Data Sciences

• Execute data science analyses on datasets from BMS clinical trials and real-world data cohorts, spanning genomics, proteomics, imaging, flow cytometry, and other high-dimensional biomarker data types
• Develop innovative approaches to integrating, mining, and visualising diverse, high-dimensional, and disparate datasets generated across early-to-late phase drug development
• Formulate, implement, test, and validate predictive models and build efficient, automated processes for delivering modelling results at scale
• Apply modern machine learning capabilities - including AI/ML, deep learning, NLP, causal ML, and explainable AI - across multiple data modalities and clinical development contexts
• Apply statistically rigorous approaches to clinical trial data, including survival analysis, longitudinal/mixed-effects modelling, and appropriate handling of missing data and censoring
• Contribute to the scientific and statistical strategy of drug development programs, including the development of predictive biomarkers, novel trial designs, and precision medicine approaches

Data Engineering & Reproducibility

• Build and maintain well-structured, reproducible, version-controlled analytical pipelines and codebases using Python, R, SQL, and cloud platforms
• Develop and apply data quality frameworks to assess and ensure fitness-for-purpose of diverse data sources for specific analytical questions
• Implement strong model evaluation practices including cross-validation strategies, calibration assessment, and transparent reporting of model performance and limitations
• Build scalable, automated processes for delivering analytical results across multiple programs and data types

Collaboration & Technical Contribution

• Partner with lead and protocol statisticians in contributing to statistical analysis plans (SAPs) for exploratory data science analyses supporting drug development programs
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams including clinicians, translational medicine scientists, biostatisticians, data engineers, and IT/engineering professionals
• Contribute to team excellence through code reviews, technical mentorship, and raising the overall engineering and methodological standards of the team
• Communicate analytical strategies and results clearly and effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, with strong data presentation and visualisation skills
• Manage and coordinate deliverables across concurrent, fast-paced projects within tight timelines, Where you work matters - because collaboration, innovation and patient impact happen in many settings. Our roles are structured across four work models: site-essential, site-by-design, field-based and remote-by-design. The model assigned to this role is based on its core responsibilities.
