Digital Biomarker Solution Architect – 6145
Our client is a pioneer in Drug Discovery and Development and one of the frontrunners in Personalised Healthcare. As the world`s largest R&D spender in the pharmaceutical and diagnostics domain, they work in a vast number of drug discovery & therapeutic areas and are highly recognized internationally.
Digital tools, such as smartphones or wearables, are able to continually measure and collect vital health information – or “Digital Biomarkers” – from patients. Digital Biomarkers are changing how future medicines will be developed and could lead to more personalized use of new medications that will transform the lives of patients. Advances in wearable devices, such as phones, watches, textiles or delivery devices, which track a patient’s vital signs and monitor for symptoms, all have the potential to vastly accelerate clinical development.
Digital biomarker studies are enabled by complex data collection and processing ecosystems comprising mobile applications, wearables, sensors, data lakes, data processing pipelines, analytics platforms, databases, device lifecycle management solutions etc. Currently, the use of digital biomarkers across clinical development programs is expanding significantly – generating terabytes of sensor/tracking data from dozens of studies and 10’000s of patients across global studies.
We’re seeking a future-thinking innovator with a strong track record as solution architect to drive forward the design, implementation, and maintenance of our Remote Monitoring Patient Platform (RPMP) for processing, analysis and storage of digital biomarker data.
