• Coordinate the development, implementation, and maintenance of data standards, metadata models, and data management approaches for exploratory, preclinical, translational, and related biomedical research data. 
• Develop and promote data management, access, and sharing practices consistent with FAIR data principles, NIH expectations, and applicable public repository requirements. 
• Translate scientific priorities and user needs into clear requirements and recommendations for data quality, informatics, software development, analytics, and AI-enabled tools. 
• Coordinate technical assistance and collaboration between scientific subject matter experts and technical teams to support investigators, data managers, and other members of the program’s user community. 
• Support scientific communications, outreach, and program activities, including annual meetings, conferences, webinars, presentations, websites, and stakeholder-facing materials. 
• Coordinate with data quality and scientific staff to help track data submission review activities, recurring issues, process improvement opportunities, and related documentation needs. 
• Draft and review contract status reports, progress updates, meeting summaries, and other program deliverables that communicate project status, accomplishments, and upcoming priorities.

• Demonstrated success coordinating complex projects, tracking action items and deliverables, maintaining documentation, and collaborating across scientific, technical, analytical, communications, and project management teams.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to summarize information clearly and professionally for different audiences. 
• Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment. 

Preferred Qualifications 

• PhD in a life or biomedical science discipline, particularly biology, microbiology, immunology, virology, infectious disease research, or a related field. 
• Prior work with NIH, HHS, NIAID, or another federal health agency. 
• Background supporting a Data Coordinating Center or a large multi-center scientific research consortium. 
• Advanced subject-matter knowledge in infectious disease, immunology, virology, vaccine development, translational science, or pre-clinical research.
