IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Clinical Data Management professional with 7+ years of experience in global clinical trials. I specialize in end-to-end data management, data cleaning, reconciliation, and database lock support, taking full ownership across multiple studies.
I’m an SME who independently manages global studies, leads client interactions, and drives remote operations at scale. In my current role with IQVIA, I trained 40+ members after US knowledge transfer and improved efficiency by ~20% using AI tools like Cogni Clean Automation.
My hands-on strengths include Medidata Rave, query lifecycle management, UAT support, CRF review, and editcheck validation. I also support external data reconciliation (Lab, SAE, Vendor) and ensure clean, on-time data handoffs for 100% of studies.
Across earlier roles at IQVIA, Covance, and Accenture, I delivered validation, reconciliation, and issue resolution while strengthening data integrity through QC checks. I bring stakeholder management across US/EU, plus training and mentorship for teams delivering clinical operations outcomes.
