Develop documentation, SOPs, and best practices to support continuous improvement initiatives.
Qualifications
Minimum 5 years of clinical research experience, with direct knowledge of clinical research coordinator duties, patient recruitment, and contracting.
Experience with e-source design and implementation (CRIO, Clinical Conductor, RealTime strongly preferred).
Strong understanding of clinical trial operations from startup through closeout.
Demonstrated ability to manage projects independently and deliver results without extensive supervision.
Excellent organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills.
Adaptability to thrive in a fast-paced startup environment.
Ability to work full-time, remote, aligned to Central Time Zone.
