Description
Within the Department of Medicine at UCSD, the Center on Gender Equity and Health (GEH) focuses on conducting innovative global public health research, medical and academic training, and evidence-based intervention development and evaluation of programs related to gender inequities, gender-based violence, and sexual and reproductive health (adolescent and unintended pregnancy, family planning, HIV/STI, healthy birth spacing). The team of social science and epidemiology researchers assembled by GEH includes leading figures in measurement and rigorous evaluation of sustainable programs working with girls, young women, their male partners and their families to understand and change gender-based behaviors and social norms that compromise health and safety. GEH epidemiologic and evaluation research is currently being undertaken in South Asia, west and east sub-Saharan Africa, and the United States. This research is supported by a diverse portfolio of public and private funders, conducted in conjunction with international NGOs, and includes engagement with local and national governments.
Under general supervision of the Principal Investigator, the Research Data Analyst provides day-to-day leadership and coordination for qualitative and mixed-methods research projects focused on social and gender norms, adolescent wellbeing, sexual and reproductive health, gender-based violence, and violence against children. With expertise in West Africa, and experience across low-and-middle-income countries, the Research Data Analyst will emphasize co-lead, collaborative research involving multi-country research partners, academic institutions, and donors. This role will be responsible for managing research implementation across the project lifecycle, with particular emphasis on qualitative and mixed-methods study design, tool development, data collection, analysis, and synthesis. The role will work closely with PIs, co-investigators, and partners to ensure methodological rigor, adherence to protocols, and high-quality data, while also supporting learning, adaptation, and use of findings.
In addition to technical contributions, the position plays a key management and coordination role, tracking deliverables, supporting team workflows, and facilitating communication across partners and internal teams. The Research Data Analyst contributes to proposal development, manuscript preparation, and dissemination products, and represents projects in meetings, learning forums, and conferences as needed. This role requires a proactive, collaborative team player who can balance independent initiative with strong coordination and support of others.
Uses skills as a seasoned, experienced research professional with a full understanding of in-depth statistical analyses and / or research software programming techniques. Demonstrates good judgment in selecting methods and techniques for obtaining solutions.
