Preferred but not required: * Experience with Git/GitHub for version control and collaborative project management. * Experience with LaTeX for academic writing. * Familiarity with SQL, cloud computing, or text analysis. * Interest in using AI-assisted programming tools (LLM-based coding agents) to augment and accelerate research projects. * Familiarity with IRB processes and regulatory requirements for human subjects research. ## Description The Data Analyst III will conduct applied empirical research in health economics, health services research, and health policy alongside research-active faculty in the Department of Health Management and Policy (HMP) at the University of Miami Business School. The work is primarily quantitative and spans the full research process: developing research questions and identification strategies, cleaning and analyzing data, implementing causal inference methods, producing tables and figures, and drafting sections of manuscripts for peer-reviewed journals and conference presentations., We are seeking a candidate with strong training in econometrics and a genuine interest in academic research. Candidates should have experience implementing causal inference methods (e.g., difference-in-differences, instrumental variables, regression discontinuity) with a solid understanding of endogeneity and causal identification. Applicants whose training is primarily in data analytics, business analytics, or data science, without complementary graduate coursework in econometrics, are unlikely to be a good fit. Beyond the requisite technical skills, the ideal candidate will bring professional maturity: the ability to take initiative, communicate proactively, exercise sound judgment with limited oversight, and contribute intellectually to the direction of the research., * Explore new datasets and propose potential research questions and identification strategies to faculty. * Contribute to study design and protocol development, including discussions of causal identification strategies, data requirements, and advanced analytic approaches. * Clean, manage, and analyze research datasets with limited direction, maintaining reproducible, well-documented code. * Draft tables, figures, methods sections, and other components of manuscripts, conference abstracts, posters, and internal memos. * Summarize data and preliminary findings for faculty and research teams. * Conduct literature reviews to inform study design and manuscript framing. * Communicate proactively and professionally with faculty and research teams, including timely responses to correspondence and clear escalation when issues arise. * Serve as project coordinator for data contracts the department has entered into with public and private organizations. * Prepare and maintain IRB protocols and related correspondence for projects involving primary data collection. * Other duties as assigned.
