Data Scientist

High-performing, high-impact tactical and strategic position requiring outstanding technical and people skills to bring in contemporary data science perspectives in order to foster quantitative thinking and decision-making grounded in data across the enterprise. As a Transdisciplinary Data Scientist, you will elevate BioMarin’s use of data. You will bring quantitative thinking and statistical analysis to challenges in potentially any area of the company. You will collaborate with multi-disciplinary teams—potentially comprising clinical scientists, non-clinical researchers, pharmaceutical regulatory experts, manufacturers, biotechnology marketers, statisticians, epidemiologists, finance staff, human resource personnel, management, etc.—on a wide range of problems. Thus a key aspect of the position is to be able to interface with counterparts with a wide range of professional backgrounds and varying aptitude with the technical aspects of data analysis, and to provide those partners with data analyses and interpretations they can understand and act upon. An important function of the position is education, equipping collaborators to understand and utilize their own data, productively and with methodological rigor. In short, the Transdisciplinary Data Scientist will advance BioMarin’s capability to turn data into information that informs decisions. The position is high-visibility, high-impact, and comes with high expectations to demonstrate value from data analysis.
