About The Position

We are seeking a highly motivated Data Scientist to support the Verismo Translational Team across multiple clinical-stage programs. This role will report to the Biomarker Lead and offers the opportunity to contribute to data-driven decision-making in a collaborative, fast-paced environment. The ideal candidate is curious, detail-oriented, and eager to work closely with Biomarker and R&D scientists to generate insights that accelerate translational research and impact clinical development. The Data Scientist will build and automate tools for multi-parameter data exploration, will help standardize datasets and streamline data analysis, and perform basic statistical analyses to enhance the speed, transparency, and scalability of our workflows. The Data Scientist will also support the development and continuous improvement of biospecimen lifecycle management systems. The role involves designing and maintaining robust, audit-ready frameworks to ensure end-to-end visibility, traceability, and integrity of all biosamples across studies, from collection through analysis. The Data Scientist will partner cross-functionally with Clinical Operations (ClinOps), Clinical Development, and Quality Assurance (QA), to ensure data integrity and enable efficient study execution and downstream biomarker analysis.
