Your Daily Tasks

Script-Lift Study Design & Execution

- Own the end-to-end design and execution of Rx/Dx claims-based script-lift studies across annual pharmaceutical campaigns
- Establish statistically sound study methodologies, including eligible HCP populations, pre- and post-campaign periods, exposed cohorts, holdout or matched control groups, attribution rules, confounder controls, and minimum sample requirements
- Identify high-value HCP audiences at campaign onset based on prescribing history, diagnosis patterns, patient opportunity, specialty, engagement signals, and other relevant attributes
- Partner with Audience Intelligence and campaign teams to establish appropriate control populations and ensure activation aligns with approved study designs
- Measure outcomes, including new prescribers, incremental prescriptions, increased prescribing among existing writers, patient-level opportunity, market share movement, and other agreed indicators of lift
- Apply causal-inference and statistical techniques, including matched cohorts, propensity scoring, difference-in-differences, regression, significance testing, sensitivity analysis, and confidence intervals

Data Management, Quality & Governance

- Ingest, normalize, join, and analyze large healthcare datasets, including longitudinal Rx and Dx claims, HCP identifiers, audience profiles, campaign exposure, digital engagement, and program-cost data
- Develop reusable code, analytical pipelines, data models, quality checks, documentation, and version-controlled workflows to make studies accurate, efficient, auditable, and repeatable
- Validate data completeness, linkage, timeliness, coding, and cohort integrity
- Investigate anomalies and clearly document assumptions, exclusions, limitations, and potential sources of bias
- Protect sensitive healthcare and commercial data by following applicable privacy, security, data-use, de-identification, access-control, and retention requirements
- Collaborate with internal teams and external data partners to resolve data gaps, improve identity matching, strengthen verified audience records, and enhance the reliability of measurement inputs

Performance Insights, Storytelling & ROI

- Produce quarterly measurement updates that explain audience quality, delivery, engagement, early prescribing signals, risks, and opportunities to improve campaign performance
- Deliver clear final analyses that quantify incremental impact and return on investment through transparent methodology and defensible conclusions
- Partner with campaign and audience teams to translate findings into specific optimizations that increase the likelihood of achieving the program's target of at least 3x ROI
- Create client-ready visualizations, executive summaries, analytical narratives, and presentations that make complex findings understandable and actionable
- Distinguish correlation from causation, communicate confidence and limitations,



and anticipate questions from clients, association partners, executives, and technical reviewers
- Build benchmarks across campaigns to identify the audiences, engagement patterns, messages, channels, and program designs most consistently associated with prescribing lift

AI-Enabled Analytics & Capability Building

- Use artificial intelligence and machine learning to accelerate data exploration, coding, quality assurance, cohort development, anomaly detection, modeling, visualization, and narrative generation while preserving human validation and methodological rigor
- Evaluate and implement AI-enabled approaches that provide additional analytical perspectives, surface plausible performance drivers, and improve the speed and consistency of recurring studies
- Establish reusable study templates, operating procedures, analytical standards, and reporting frameworks to scale script-lift and outcomes measurement efficiently as the business grows
- Operate entrepreneurially within an emerging capability by identifying requirements, proposing practical solutions, testing approaches, making sound decisions with incomplete information, and driving work forward with limited oversight
- Maintain current knowledge of healthcare claims analytics, causal inference, measurement, machine learning, generative AI, and responsible AI practices and apply relevant advances to the program

Cross-Functional Leadership

- Serve as the analytical lead and primary subject-matter expert on study design, claims-based measurement, script lift, outcomes, and ROI methodology
- Partner with Audience Intelligence to translate analytical findings into audience selection, targeting, verification, and optimization strategies
- Collaborate with Data, Ad Operations, e-Delivery, Product, Engineering, and Sales teams to define and operationalize required data, tools, workflows, dashboards, and campaign processes
