Senior Epidemiologist

About the Role

What if your expertise in epidemiology could directly shape how population-level health data is understood, interpreted, and acted upon? We're looking for a Senior Epidemiologist to evaluate complex epidemiological models, dissect study designs, and surface the insights that drive real public health decisions.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for experienced epidemiologists who want meaningful, intellectually rigorous work — on their own schedule.

• Assess study methodology for sources of bias, confounding, and misclassification
• Summarize findings in structured, scientifically precise formats suitable for expert audiences
• Evaluate relationships between interventions, risk factors, and health outcomes
• Support recurring reviews of surveillance data and public health reports

Who You Are

• Deep background in epidemiology, public health, or biostatistics
• Strong command of study design, statistical inference, and causal reasoning
• Experienced analyzing large, complex health datasets with rigor and precision
• Able to communicate nuanced scientific findings clearly and concisely
• Self-directed and comfortable working independently on substantive analytical tasks

Nice to Have

• Experience in infectious disease modeling or clinical epidemiology
• Familiarity with surveillance systems or public health data infrastructure
• Background in peer review, scientific writing, or health policy analysis

Why Join Us

• Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
