About the Role

What if your expertise in healthcare analytics could directly shape how clinical data drives better patient outcomes? We're looking for a Clinical Data Strategist to dig into complex, multi-source datasets, surface the trends that matter, and translate raw clinical information into structured insights that power real decisions.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for experienced healthcare analytics professionals who thrive on turning messy data into clarity.

  • Type: Hourly Contract
  • Location: Remote
  • Schedule: Flexible, asynchronous work

What You'll Do

  • Review and validate data quality across multi-source clinical datasets
  • Identify trends, outliers, and key drivers behind healthcare outcomes
  • Analyze care-pathway behavior and translate findings into operational insights
  • Interpret quality metrics, performance benchmarks, and compliance indicators
  • Produce structured, actionable summaries for use in downstream analytical workflows
  • Support recurring evaluations of clinical data pipelines and reporting outputs

Who You Are

  • Experienced in healthcare analytics, data science, or clinical operations
  • Strong understanding of clinical workflows, outcome measures, and quality metrics
  • Skilled at synthesizing large volumes of complex clinical information into clear, structured outputs
  • Detail-oriented and systematic — you don't just find patterns, you know what they mean
  • Self-directed and reliable when working independently in a remote setting

Nice to Have

  • Familiarity with risk-adjustment methodologies
  • Experience working with claims data or population-health analytics
  • Background in value-based care, health system reporting, or clinical quality improvement

Why Join Us

  • Work on meaningful projects where your insights directly influence healthcare decision-making
  • Fully remote and flexible — work when and where you do your best thinking
  • Freelance autonomy paired with structured, substantive analytical work
  • Collaborate with teams at the intersection of healthcare and data strategy
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
