Staff Data Scientist

Iterative Health is a healthcare technology and services company powering the acceleration of clinical research to transform patient outcomes. We built a leading performance-driven network of 100+ sites across the US, Europe, India, and Australia, conducting research directly in the communities where care is delivered across gastrointestinal, hepatology, obesity, and cardiology. By combining deep clinical trial expertise with cutting-edge AI, we connect sponsors' scientific ambitions with high-performing research teams that expedite and expand access to novel therapeutics for patients in need. Today, Iterative Health is headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and New York City with 250+ employees world-wide.  About the Role Accelerating clinical research is one of the defining challenges in healthcare. Promising therapies exist that patients can't access because the operational infrastructure to run clinical trials efficiently doesn't exist yet. We're building it. That means designing technology systems that bring order to a fragmented landscape of clinical data sources, automating the operational work that slows trials down, and turning real-world clinical data into a foundation for predictive intelligence. We're looking for a Staff Data Scientist to be the person who understands our data deeply enough to know what's possible and curious enough to prove it. We have a truly unique data set within the industry, connecting clinical data (emr, endoscopic video, etc…) to trial data across 80+ trial sites. We're looking for someone who wants to dig deeply into this data - to understand its structure, its gaps, what it can tell us - and connect that understanding to real outcomes for sites and patients. The landscape is evolving rapidly, and the right person will have a point of view on how to apply new capabilities to our specific data and problems as they emerge.You'll work hands-on with the data, structure experiments, evaluate what's modelable, and directly influence what we build and how. This role sits at the intersection of data science, product strategy, and ML: you'll lay the foundation for our predictive capabilities and shape what that function becomes. This is an opportunity for someone who wants to be part of a small, fast-moving engineering team at a formative stage. You'll shape what gets built, how decisions get made, and what the team becomes.   Responsibilities Work with clinical, video, and clinical trial operational data to understand what's there, what's meaningful, and how we can use it to drive a more efficient clinical trial system Design and run experiments that determine what's worth building Stay close to the evolving ML and model landscape and bring a point of view on how new capabilities apply to our data and problems Define the path from raw data to product and operationalization: what to model, how to evaluate it, and when it's ready to ship Partner with product and engineering to translate findings into c...
