What I'm looking for

I seek a pharmacovigilance or data-analysis role where I can apply my ICSR, safety-database, and coding expertise, contribute to data quality and compliance, and continue professional growth in clinical safety and database validation.

I am a dedicated Junior Data Analyst with over five years of experience in pharmacovigilance and clinical safety operations, most recently at Cognizant Technology Solutions. My career includes roles in case processing, reconciliation, workflow support, and medical coding across healthcare services and clinical safety teams.

I specialize in ICSR case processing, safety data management, and coding using industry tools and standards such as Veeva, Arisg, Oracle Argus, ICD-10, CPT, MedDRA, and WHODD. I have extensive experience handling serious and non-serious cases, SAE reconciliation, book-in/splitting/merge processing, and supporting safety database validation and user acceptance testing.

I hold a Master of Pharmacy (Pharmacognosy & Phyto-Chemistry) and a Bachelor of Pharmacy, and I have completed multiple pharmacovigilance and signal-detection courses. My academic project work and certifications underscore my analytical approach and commitment to regulatory-compliant safety reporting and aggregate pharmacovigilance deliverables.

I bring strong attention to detail, effective communication, and a collaborative work ethic to ensure data quality and timely reporting. I am eager to apply my safety-database, coding, and reconciliation expertise to deliver reliable clinical-safety outcomes while continuing to grow professionally.
