SUMMARY
As an integral team member of Clinical/Regulatory, the Clinical Affairs Scientist will serve a
hybrid function spanning Medical Writing, Data Science, and Clinical Data Management.
This role is designed for a small, agile clinical organization where cross-functional expertise
is essential to maximizing the value of our clinical, bench, and real-world evidence datasets.
The ideal candidate will help PMT deepen its understanding of our investigational and
commercial product performance, identify pathways for future regulatory or marketing
claims, support ongoing and new clinical studies, and lead the development of manuscripts,
abstracts, and clinical documents that communicate our evidence to internal and external

MAIN RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Data Science & Evidence Exploration (~40%): Lead strategic analysis and
exploration of PMT's clinical datasets to identify insights, claims opportunities,
and research pathways. - Conduct exploratory analyses on data from the IDE study, legacy clinical studies,
real-world evidence programs, and materials/bench testing datasets. - Integrate multiple datasets (IDE, post-market, legacy trials, bench data) to
explore novel clinical or regulatory claims, identify signals, or highlight areas for
further investigation. - Develop analytical plans for exploratory work and hypothesis-generative
analyses, independently and with consultation/guidance from team and PMT. - Identify patterns or early signals that may support future studies, line extensions,
product differentiation, or claims expansion. - Support cross-functional partners (Regulatory, R&D, Marketing) by translating
complex data into actionable narratives or claims opportunities; utilize knowledge - Subject Matter Expert: Generate strategic reports and dashboards summarizing
insights, trends, and opportunities discovered through advanced data
exploration, and stay abreast of the competition and the clinical evidence factors
