About the Role:

IQVIA is expanding a sponsor-dedicated programming team supporting the long-term data standards initiatives of a leading global pharmaceutical company.

As a Principal Statistical Programmer – ADaM Standards Engineer, you’ll act as the ADaM Standards Subject Matter Expert (SME) responsible for developing, maintaining, and implementing ADaM and CDISC standards across the sponsor’s portfolio.

  • Support client-specific SDTM and ADaM mapping tools and standardization initiatives.

  • Review and provide feedback on e-submission packages for global regulatory authorities.

  • Lead study-related programming activities for specific molecules — writing ADaM specifications, performing and validating ADaM/TLF programming (safety & efficacy), and handling legacy data.

  • Review SDTM standards and assess the impact of updates on existing ADaM CORE standards.

  • Contribute to ADaM submission package reviews across multiple health authorities (FDA, EMA, PMDA).

  • Ensure ADaM datasets comply with CDISC and regulatory submission standards; maintain integrity and traceability.

  • Identify data inconsistencies and recommend corrective actions to ensure standards compliance and data quality.

  • Collaborate with Data Management teams to ensure proper data collection, CRF design, and transfer specifications aligned with submission standards.

  • Develop and maintain CDISC-related metadata libraries, controlled terminology, and standard repositories.

  • Provide governance oversight to ensure consistency in standards application.

  • Stay current on emerging regulatory data standards and evaluate their impact on data flows and submissions.

  • Act as a technical consultant to internal Data Sciences and project teams regarding standards implementation and compliance.


Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Statistics, Biology, Pharmacology, or related discipline.

  • 8+ years of experience as a Statistical Programmer, with demonstrated expertise in global data standards development and maintenance.

  • Proven experience in ADaM and SDTM implementation and regulatory submission requirements (FDA/PMDA/EMA).

  • Strong background in Oncology required; experience in Virology and/or Inflammation preferred.

  • Excellent problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills.

  • Ability to work independently in a remote, high-accountability environment.

  • High attention to detail, multi-tasking capability, and strategic standards mindset.


Compensation:

  • Base Pay Range (Annualized): $88,300 – $273,200 USD
    (Actual salary determined by experience, education, and location)

  • May include: bonuses, incentives, health, and welfare benefits
