** Job Summary
** The Research Computational Scientists (RCS) II will collaborate with providers, researchers, and other associates to provide computational services required for research and implementation of research findings. This requires a multidisciplinary training in the computational and data sciences including statistics, computer science, and artificial intelligence. The role will support the development and innovative application of advanced simulation, data analyses, visual analytics, or other computational techniques to research problems across the CHOC Health System.

Daily tasks include working closely with providers, researchers, and other associates to develop or deploy computational solutions required for improving knowledge, the health of patients, and the financial health of the organization. These computational solutions will include development of new statistical, machine-learning, and artificial intelligence algorithms, improvement of existing algorithms, and analyses of data from the electronic medical records of patients.

Data sources will span not just the electronic medical records but other sources of data relevant to research and organizational growth. The goal is the development of deeper understanding, insight, and prediction of events that may foster the health of children and the health of the care system as well.
