Johnson & Johnson MedTech Companies have been working to benefit patients by improving surgery for over a century. The MedTech Epidemiology and Real-World Data Science team is an industry leader in using real world evidence for medical devices and technologies. We are driven by J&J’s Credo to benefit the patients we serve of all races, ethnicities, genders, and sexual orientation, to care for our employees, to benefit the communities and environment we work in and finally to work for the success of our shareholders. Our goal is to apply real-world evidence (RWE) as a tool to efficiently address the needs of J&J’s MedTech sector and to benefit patients. To do this, we focus in 5 areas: 1) evidence for market access and adoption globally, 2) evaluations of product safety, 3) evidence for regulatory approvals (pre- and post-approval), 4) advancing the use of AI/ML use for MedTech, and 5) evidence for business development due diligence and identification of unmet needs.

This position is an exciting opportunity to lead all programming efforts, including statistical programming and analysis of real-world data studies to support the generation of clinical evidence for post-market clinical follow-up activities to meet regulatory requirements, patient safety, clinical, medical, and research and development (R&D) functions. The position requires good judgement in identifying and understanding fit for purpose real world data to support clinical evidence generation.

Key Responsibilities:

• You will actively partner with colleagues in MedTech Epidemiology, offshore programmers, Medical Safety, Medical Affairs, Scientific and Clinical Affairs, and R&D.
• You will lead the statistical programming of epidemiologic studies using real world data.
• A focus is on RWE studies to meet regulatory requirements, particularly European Union Medical Device Regulation (EU-MDR) requirements for proactive surveillance.
• You will write study protocols, data specifications, and study reports, as needed, use a variety of analytical techniques applied to various databases, and strategize regarding research programs.
• You will leverage epidemiology methods to address emerging safety signals and queries.
• You will participate in various activities across the MedTech business units (DePuy Synthes, Ethicon, and Cardiovascular and Specialty Solutions), the larger cross-sector Epidemiology Department, and the Office of Chief Medical Officer.
