Clinical Data Scientist

Unlearn exists to transform clinical development by making every trial smarter. We harness data, AI, and digital twins to enable faster, more robust studies that bring life-saving treatments to patients faster. This mission drives everything we do as we partner with biopharmaceutical companies to redesign how clinical trials are planned, run, and analyzed.

We are defining the future of clinical development with unmatched scientific credibility, replacing uncertainty with AI-powered precision so decisions are clearer and trials are stronger. We don’t just disrupt the pharmaceutical industry, we create lasting change.

We believe AI will define the future of medicine, and we are committed to building that future responsibly, rigorously, and in close collaboration with our partners in clinical development.

We come from a variety of backgrounds ranging from machine learning to marketing—but regardless of where we come from, Unlearners share some common traits:

Clinical Data Scientists at Unlearn build world-class data products that underpin advances in machine learning for clinical research. Working in close collaboration with machine learning scientists, engineers, clinical scientists, and product partners, they transform complex clinical data into high-quality, well-understood datasets tailored for modeling and other downstream applications. The role spans multiple disease areas and data sources, requiring strong software practices, careful data curation, and the ability to quickly develop clinical domain expertise. In addition to internal development, Clinical Data Scientists often work in forward-deployed settings, partnering directly with clients to ensure Unlearn’s solutions are appropriately tailored to real-world study designs.
