What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Clinical Data Analyst, Scientific Affairs position at Ro?
Ro is a direct-to-patient healthcare company with a mission of helping patients achieve their health goals by delivering the easiest, most effective care possible. Ro is the only company to offer nationwide telehealth, labs, and pharmacy services. This is enabled by Ro's vertically integrated platform that helps patients achieve their goals through a convenient, end-to-end healthcare experience spanning from diagnosis, to delivery of medication, to ongoing care. Since 2017, Ro has helped millions of patients in nearly every single county in the United States, including 99% of primary care deserts.
Ro is consistently recognized as a top workplace in Health Care, in New York, and for Women and Parents—earning more than 20 honors from Fortune, Great Place to Work, and PEOPLE since 2021. In 2025 alone, we ranked top 5 among medium workplaces in Health Care and New York, and top 50 nationwide.
We’re hiring a Senior Clinical Data Analyst to join Ro’s Scientific Affairs team—a small, high-impact group of physicians, scientists, and data experts shaping how clinical credibility is built in modern healthcare.
This is not a back-office analytics role. You’ll sit at the intersection of science, data, and storytelling, owning work that directly influences how millions of patients understand and trust their care. From substantiating marketing claims to generating real-world evidence for pharmaceutical partners to contributing to peer-reviewed publications, your work will be visible, strategic, and consequential.
You’ll collaborate closely with teams across Marketing, Legal, and Product (Digital and Physical), translating complex analyses into clear, credible narratives that stand up to scrutiny and resonate with patients. Alongside board-certified physicians, PhD-level scientists, and experienced health data analysts, you’ll bring rigor to everything from customer-facing claims to original research, clinical protocols, and conference submissions.
Whether you’re synthesizing data to guide evidence-backed content, helping shape a publication that advances the standard of care, or contributing to scientific and clinical conferences, you’ll see your work move quickly from insight to impact. If you thrive in ambiguity, love turning data into decisions, and want real ownership in redefining clinical trust at a fast-growing healthcare company, this role was built for you.
