** Overview*
* The Director, RWD Scientist will be an integral leader in our evidence generation strategy in Cardiometabolic Health (CMH).  Using their knowledge and expertise in real-world data, analytics, and outcomes research, this leader will translate scientific ideas into tangible actions and solutions.  The leader in this role is proficient in the technical aspects of RWD sources including claims and health records data and has hands on experience designing and executing studies using RWD.  

In addition, the Director, RWD Scientist will need to engage credibly with scientists and senior leadership on methods, implementation, and interpretation of real-world evidence and can lead operational execution of complex studies on traditional, as well as bespoke, sources of data. The role carries responsibility not just for executing today's RWD agenda, but for also anticipating what the field will require in three to five years and positioning Lilly to lead it.

This includes maximizing the value of AI and emerging technologies into the RWD workflow, building federated and privacy-preserving data capabilities, connecting RWD insights to clinical trial design and regulatory strategy, and ensuring Lilly's data assets reflect the diversity and complexity of real-world patient populations. This is a critical role requiring strong internal partnership, scientific credibility, and the ability to balance uncompromising adherence to standards and best practices with a need for urgency and rapid innovation.
