Key Responsibilities:

  • Maintain source links, search strings, alert parameters, monitoring cadence, inclusion / exclusion rules, and output versions
  • Maintain reviewed outputs and decision rationale to support traceability and future reuse
  • Track unresolved items, overdue reviews, recurring technical issues, and gaps in search criteria

Stakeholder Coordination & Escalation:

  • Coordinate with Global Evidence Generation, RWD CoE, Scientific Communications, DD&T, I&A, and other partners to ensure surveillance outputs are routed appropriately
  • Escalate unclear relevance, high-impact evidence signals, AI tool errors, recurring false positives / negatives, and surveillance scope issues to US owners
  • Support continuous improvement of alert configuration, search logic, templates, and surveillance dashboards
