Senior Specialist, Regulatory Authoring Data Analyst
Digital Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls (dCMC) is a cross-divisional digital transformation initiative that will enable the pipeline by establishing a digital continuum of data from development through manufacturing for our products and processes. dCMC intends to deliver: Increased productivity and speed to clinic/market Accelerated timelines for site, filing, and launch readiness Improved access to product and process data Streamlined transfer of process and product knowledge with reduced error rates A key enabler of these outcomes is implementation of digital solutions that will install the foundational capabilities needed to realize dCMCs vision of frictionless flow of data from development to commercialization and supply. A key workstream within this initiative is the auto-generation of regulatory filing sections, enabled by a dedicated application designed to create a frictionless flow of data from source systems to regulatory documentation. Under the guidance of dCMC Regulatory Authoring Leadership, the Senior Specialist, Regulatory Authoring Data Analyst, will optimize regulatory authoring processes and enhance data management by mapping workflows, prioritizing source documents for digitization, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to implement digital solutions. The applicant will help define and implement the approach of structured content management. They will also support project management activities to ensure efficient execution and compliance within CMC operations. The responsibilities of the dCMC Data Analyst include: Business Process Mapping and Optimization : Working with Digital CMC and associated business stakeholders, the analyst will map end-to-end processes that produce regulatory authoring data, convert complex tasks into clear workflows, identify gaps, and prioritize solutions to improve efficiency and compliance. Source Document Identification and Prioritization : The analyst will identify true source documents for past regulatory filings to prioritize digitization and integration. They will drive decisions in collaboration with the data strategy team on areas of priority and opportunities for further investment. Stakeholder Management & Communication : The analyst will organize and lead information gathering sessions with the internal CMC community, collaborate with cross-functional teams to gather business requirements, and coordinate with IT, Research, and Manufacturing to capture feedback on developed capabilities to ensure effective digital solution integration and adoption. Documentation and Project Management Support : The analyst will create detailed process documentation, including workflows and data models. They will support project management by tracking tasks, reporting status, coordinating meetings, managing timelines and risks, and monitoring KPIs to measure digitization success. Application SME and Data Steward : The analyst will support application deployment and use, with responsibilities ranging from data template creation and maintenance, onboarding data stewards from the business, authoring SOPs for new application releases, and troubleshooting use and data management. Required Skills and Experience: Knowledge of manufacturing, testing, quality, and supply chain processes from late clinical development through commercialization, with practical insight into how these operations generate CMC regulatory content Understanding of CMC operations, technology transfer, control strategy development, and regulatory authoring requirements that inform automated filing generation Hands-on experience in regulatory authoring and submission documentation, including preparing, reviewing or supporting filing ready content and structured filing outputs Proven ability to map business processes, perform gap analyses, and redesign workflows to improve efficiency, reduce errors, and enable digitization Experience in digitization and data management initiatives in regulated environments, including source-document identification/prioritization, metadata design, and content/data modeling Working knowledge of key enterprise systems (LIMS, MES, SAP) and practical experience coordinating their integration into data pipelines, APIs, or ETL processes for downstream authoring use Skilled in creating and managing detailed cross-functional project plans and driving execution with accountability Strong team contributor, promoting an inclusive and collaborative environment Effective problem-solving, conflict resolution, and ownership-driving skills Excellent verbal and written communication, with ability to tailor messages and actively listen Highly organized, able to prioritize tasks to ensure project success Preferred Experience and Skills: Experience implementing or supporting automated regulatory authoring (structured content, template-driven generation, or document assembly) from source systems Strong background in business process mapping, gap analysis, and workflow optimization for CMC/regulatory authoring Familiarity with CMC operations and technology transfer from late clinical development to commercialization (manufacturing, testing, quality, supply) Practical knowledge of content models/structured content, metadata, and data template design to enable automated authoring Experience with data integration patterns and tools (APIs, data pipelines) and relevant systems (LIMS, MES, SAP) Experience in data governance, data stewardship, and data quality management in regulated environments Strong stakeholder facilitation and project management skills (cross-functional workshops, requirements synthesis, KPI tracking, SOPs, and training) Education Minimum Requirement: Bachelors of Science in a related discipline (e.g., Chemistry, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Data Analytics, Information Systems), with a minimum 4 years of experience Masters degree in a related discipline (e.g., Chemistry, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Data Analytics, Information Systems), with a minimum of 3 years of experience Ph.D. in a related discipline (e.g., Chemistry, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Data Analytics, Information Systems), with relevant academic experience The salary range for this role is $114,700.00 - $180,500.00. This is the lowest to highest salary we in good faith believe we would pay for this role at the time of this posting. An employees position within the salary range will be based on several factors including, but not limited to, relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, geographic location, government requirements, and business or organizational needs. The successful candidate will be eligible for annual bonus and long-term incentive, if applicable. We offer a comprehensive package of benefits.
