• Perform rigorous QA/validation, reconciliation, and documentation of data lineage and definitions.
• Optimize SQL for performance and cost (e.g., Snowflake warehouses, clustering, time travel, tasks/streams).
• Collaborate with clinicians, research staff, and data scientists to ensure datasets are complete, accurate, and analysis-ready.
• Handle PHI responsibly; comply with IRB, HIPAA, and institutional data governance.
• Create basic exploratory summaries and dashboards (Tableau/Power BI or Python/pandas) to verify data quality and usability.
