• Initial Data Clean-up - Lead the initial clean-up and normalization of customer master data, including duplicate resolution, source reconciliation, standardization, enrichment, and remediation of high-impact data quality issues before ongoing governance processes are operationalized.
• HIPAA Compliance & Privacy - Ensure master data handling, access, encryption, auditability, and data-sharing processes align with HIPAA and internal privacy and information security policies for PHI/PII.
• Data Governance - Define and operationalize data ownership models, data standards, decision rights, approval workflows, data quality metrics, data cataloging practices, and routines for governance forums that sustain data hygiene across the enterprise.
• System Integration - Partner with Commercial Operations, IT, Analytics, Revenue Cycle, Market Access, and vendor teams to manage integrations and data flows between Salesforce.com, MDM platforms, data warehouses, reporting tools, and downstream operational systems.
• Data Quality Management - Lead initial customer data clean-up, address standardization, identity verification, completeness checks, routine audits, remediation efforts, and continuous improvement initiatives to improve customer data accuracy, usability, and ongoing data hygiene.
• Process Documentation & Training - Document standard operating procedures, stewardship playbooks, escalation paths, and training materials to support consistent, compliant customer data management across teams.
• Cross-Functional Partnership - Translate business requirements into data management solutions and communicate clearly with business stakeholders, data stewards, technology partners, compliance teams, and leadership.

• Systems & Data Skills - Familiarity with SQL, data warehouses or cloud data platforms such as Snowflake, data cataloging tools such as Collibra, and reporting or analytics tools.
• Commercial Operations - Understanding of provider, account, territory, patient, payer, and healthcare organization data and how it supports commercial execution, reporting, market access, billing, and customer engagement.
