Capabilities

A rigorous, engineering-first approach to data problems — from greenfield platform builds and data pipeline architecture to deep clinical trial compliance work. Two complementary tiers: broad data systems expertise, and specialist eCOA/ePRO depth.

Core

Data Systems & Engineering

End-to-end platform development, data infrastructure and custom tooling for any data-intensive domain.

🏗️

Platform Architecture

Design and build of custom web platforms, internal tools and data management systems. Full stack — from database schema to deployed interface.

🔁

Data Pipeline Engineering

Ingest, transform, validate and deliver data across formats — SQL, XML, SAS, ASCII, JSON. Inbound and outbound integrations with third-party APIs.

Automation & Tooling

Eliminate manual bottlenecks. Build generation tools, deployment automators and report factories that shrink days-long cycles to minutes.

📊

Analytics & Reporting

Custom dashboards, email alerts, data quality monitoring and audit-ready reports tailored to your workflow and stakeholders.

🐳

DevOps & Deployment

Docker-based deployments, Linux VPS management, NGINX/Traefik routing. Reliable, reproducible environments from staging to production.

🔗

API & System Integration

Connect disparate systems and vendors. Experience integrating third-party health device APIs into regulated clinical data flows.

Specialist

eCOA / ePRO — Clinical Data Capture

Deep domain expertise in electronic Clinical Outcome Assessments across the full trial lifecycle, from protocol to database lock.

Nine years building, managing and automating eCOA/ePRO systems for global Phase II–IV trials. My work spans database architecture, CDISC/SDTM compliance, sponsor data delivery and regulatory audit support — with deployment across 45+ countries and 20,000+ patients, for sponsors including Novartis, Roche, Pfizer, GSK and argenx.

eCOA Database Development

Design and build of clinical outcome assessment databases in Microsoft SQL Server, aligned to study protocol and sponsor DTA requirements.

MS SQL Server · PL/SQL

CDISC / SDTM Compliance

Electronic COA data mappings to CDISC standards. Internal SDTM metadata reporting and DTA implementation from Data Transfer Specifications documents.

CDISC · SDTM · SAS

Study Data Transfers

Custom SAS, ASCII and XML data transfers per sponsor DTA. Automated DTS document generation from JSON study design inputs.

SAS · XML · ASCII

Deployment Infrastructure

Led the build of an internal platform that cut eCOA database deployment time from 4 hours to 30 minutes — QA to Production, with metadata extraction and permission controls.

DevOps · JavaScript · SQL

Edit Checks & Data Quality

SQL-based data quality checks and edit check development for verification prior to data transfer. Reducing discrepancy rates ahead of database lock.

SQL · Data QC

Regulatory & Audit Support

SOP authoring for project management departments. Audit support for FDA and EMA regulatory reviews. Compliance documentation throughout the trial lifecycle.

FDA · EMA · SOP

Experience

From academic physics research to data engineering leadership in global clinical trials.
