Hybrid Roles:

This is a highly dynamic role in which you will work in a team environment to develop global evidence-based clinical strategies for cardiology medical devices (Cardiac Rhythm Management) by creating clinical documentation that systematically synthesizes information from multiple data sources. As a Clinical Evaluation Scientist, you will plan and develop clinical evaluation reports (CERs) and post-market clinical follow-up (PMCF) reports, as well as summary of safety and clinical performance reports (SSCPs) in alignment with applicable clinical and regulatory standards and business needs. This role applies analytical thought processes and a highly methodical clinical evaluation approach to develop benefit/risk profiles for the Boston Scientific portfolio cardiology devices. A successful candidate has excellent writing skills as well as the ability to work collaboratively with cross-functional partners. Your efforts support product approval, indication expansion and claim support, and mandated post-market requirements.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Compile, appraise, and evaluate data from multiple sources including clinical trials, medical literature, design verification/validation data, and product complaint data. Compare and align this data with Risk Documentation and product labeling to identify gaps or emergent concerns.

  • Develop literature search strategies in collaboration with librarians and perform methodical evaluation of medical literature including screening, appraisal and extraction of relevant data.

  • Develop Clinical Benefit Statements in collaboration with medical experts and develop pre- and post-market data collection strategies to support the developed statements.

  • Create analyses to evaluate product benefit/risk profile, safety (e.g., develop a profile of adverse events), and performance. Identify potential clinical evidence gaps and contribute to development of prospective evidence strategy to address gaps.

  • Develop global clinical data strategies in collaboration with leadership and cross-functional partners to support market access for New Product Development, Sustaining Product compliance and Design Changes to existing products.

  • Manage ongoing Design and Quality activities to support necessary changes and/or improvements to devices, including assessing the impact to existing clinical data strategies, proposing and developing new clinical data activities to meet any identified gaps, and coordinating with management to ensure resourcing needs are considered.
