What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can apply clinical and safety analytics to improve drug development and compliance, using ETL, cloud, and BI tools in collaborative, quality-driven teams.

I am a Senior Data Analyst with 8+ years of experience in pharmaceutical analytics, focused on clinical trials, pharmacovigilance, and regulatory compliance. I integrate complex datasets from CTMS, LIMS, ERP, and safety systems to deliver actionable insights for drug development and patient safety.

I have built ETL pipelines, source-to-target mappings, and automated reporting using Informatica, Alteryx, Apache Airflow, SQL, SAS, Python, Databricks, and cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP). I design interactive dashboards in Tableau and Power BI to monitor trial progress, safety signals, and supply chain performance.

I ensure data governance and regulatory adherence (21 CFR Part 11, FDA, EMA, HIPAA, GDPR), lead CSV activities for LIMS, and support RBQM and compliance reporting to streamline submissions and improve decision-making.
