Research Data Analyst 2

The Division of Computational Medicine in the Stanford Department of Medicine is advancing the future of health through data science, biomedical informatics, and interdisciplinary research. Our faculty are national leaders driving innovation that transforms complex data into meaningful clinical impact.

We are seeking a collaborative data science and machine learning professional to help build and evaluate real-world clinical AI, from extracting and curating EHR data (clinical notes, lab results, and other sources) to producing analysis-ready datasets and publication-quality reports and visualizations (for example ROC and precision recall analyses). Working side by side with physicians, fellows, and data warehouse and IT partners, you will define evolving data needs, troubleshoot data quality issues, and ensure responsible, compliant data use. You will also train and assess machine learning and large language model approaches to identify clinical infections and predict laboratory outcomes, and contribute to prototyping and testing software and data pipelines, including Python-based serverless functions that retrieve near real-time patient data via FHIR APIs, supported by clear audit-ready documentation.
