Job Description

Senior Biostatistician – Beacon Biosignals Beacon Biosignals is on a mission to revolutionize precision medicine for the brain. We are the leading at-home EEG platform supporting clinical development of novel therapeutics for neurological, psychiatric, and sleep disorders. Our FDA 510(k)-cleared Waveband EEG headband and AI algorithms enable quantitative biomarker discovery and implementation. Beacon’s Clinico-EEG database contains EEG data from nearly 100,000 patients, and our cloud-native analytics platform powers large-scale RWD/RWE retrospective and predictive studies. Beacon Biosignals is changing the way that patients are treated for any disorder that affects brain physiology. Beacon Biosignals is seeking an experienced data scientist/biostatistician to help us collect, ingest, analyze, and interpret petabytes of EEG data to drive advancements in brain health. This role is part of the Biostatistics function within Beacon's Data Science Group. The Data Science Group is a diverse set of talented, dedicated individuals with expertise across neuroscience, biostatistics, data wrangling, and more, who collaborate across the organization and externally to answer scientific questions with data. In this role, you'll work in cross‑functional teams to support Beacon's Life Sciences engagements with industry partners that power novel therapies for patients with neurological, psychiatric, and sleep disorders. You'll also collaborate with scientists, engineers, and clinicians to draw meaningful insights from real‑world data and accelerate neurobiomarker discovery. This role reports to the manager of the Data Science Group. As such, we're always seeking new contributors whose work demonstrates innate curiosity, a bias toward simplicity, an eye for composability, a self‑service mindset, and—most of all—a deep empathy toward colleagues, stakeholders, users, and patients. Beacon's robust asynchronous work practices ensure a first‑class remote work experience, but we also have in‑person office hubs located in Boston, New York City, and Paris. For this position, candidates based in the United States are preferred to minimize logistical hurdles and maximize timezone overlap with colleagues and partners. What success looks like Lead and support the development of statistical analysis plans for clinical trials in collaboration with internal subject matter experts and external stakeholders. Perform power and sample size calculations that ensure our studies are appropriately powered to measure meaningful effects on the brain. Deliver clear and impactful presentations and data visualizations to varied audiences, both internal and external. Lead and support the scientific and technical aspects of multiple concurrent studies, including timeline estimation, task delegation, and stakeholder communication. Contribute to group‑level processes and procedures to help make projects run more smoothly and efficiently. Co‑author scientific reports whose impact pushes the field past contemporary limitations. Write and review reusable, documented, tested code that produces polished, high‑quality analytical results for partners and powers our core computational pipelines. Leverage Beacon’s products and your subject‑matter expertise to inform analysis planning and execution. Dig into large, messy, unfamiliar datasets, document their idiosyncrasies and provenance, and harmonize them with Beacon’s datastore. What you will bring Multiple years in industry using expertise in frequentist biostatistics to design and analyze clinical trials. Deep familiarity with statistical modeling, including interpretation and diagnostics, and the ability to choose the right tool for the problem. Experience presenting analyses to external audiences of varied backgrounds. Experience writing and reviewing code in a shared, version‑controlled codebase with unit tests and documentation. Strong data curation skills and attention to detail. Team‑oriented, collaborative approach with clear communication. Excellent written and verbal communication and listening skills.
