JOB DESCRIPTION

Our client is seeking a Sr Application Analyst (SAA) with Epic certification in Beacon and Willow and a strong clinical pharmacy experience to support and expand our oncology research initiatives.

The ideal candidate will combine pharmacy and oncology expertise with strong Epic application build experience to support the end-to-end development, testing, validation, and maintenance of research medication and protocol builds. The SAA will work closely with oncology clinical teams, research stakeholders, pharmacists, and IT partners to translate study requirements into safe, accurate, and operationally appropriate Epic solutions.

This role will have a key focus on oncology research protocol and medication build, including coordination of build activities, management of research build timelines, and alignment with Montefiore's established processes for validation, testing, documentation, and change control.

The SAA will also serve as a quality assurance resource for research builds completed by other analysts, reviewing build for clinical accuracy, consistency, functionality, and adherence to established standards.

Candidates with prior experience supporting oncology clinical trials, research protocols, investigational medications, or oncology pharmacy workflows are strongly preferred.

This is a 100% remote position. The successful candidate must be able to work independently, manage competing priorities, communicate effectively in a virtual environment, and collaborate with cross-functional teams across clinical, research, pharmacy, and IT functions.
