Bioinformatics AnalystResponsible for assisting in ensuring data integrity and data competency for clinical and research data critical to business intelligence. This initiative addresses the current information architecture and technical environment challenges to establish the data request management foundation to create a standardized data access format across functional data. To successfully perform this role, the Specialist must have experience in the genomic and/or biology field, including deep knowledge of reference data repositories, standard practices, and analytical tools to transform, migrate, and analyze genomics data in disparate systems. Of particular importance to this position is the ability to independently provide detailed work and documentation required to assure the accuracy of the information and processes. This position will work closely with the Information Technology/Systems Department. The Bioinformatician must use his/her knowledge and expert understanding of informatics, genomics/biology, and other information generated by numerous sources to identify opportunities to improve data accuracy/integrity and to establish solid clinical genomics processes. Furthermore, the position requires the ability to accurately articulate technical plans, progress, and results to internal and external audiences, assisting in implementation of division-wide business plans and new technologies/methodologies, and designing surveillance programs to track and monitor progress. These functions must be done while also weighing the practical considerations and potential barriers that must be overcome to successfully implement new programs and processes.Establish processes to handle business requests to the Enterprise Analytics Omics Initiative efficiently and effectively.
