Statistical Programming Analyst III

Duration: 6+ Months (Possible Contract to hire)
Job Description:

• Partially onsite / M-F; 8 hours per day; 40 hours per week.
• Interview Process: 2 rounds First interview in person with manager; Second interview virtually with lead staff.
• Required Software: Microsoft Office Preferred Software: SAS and/or Python; Databricks; SQL
• About the role: MSAD is a reporting department working with JJ/JM Part A/B and RRB claims. There are a few different types of work that we do monthly. The beginning of the month is centered around data integrity and standard/routine processes. At the first of each month, we assist the data warehouse with their table loads by ensuring the data is complete and accurate. Once the tables are updated, we then run all our standard/routine processes against the updated data and deliver those reports. The remainder of the month will be spent creating ad hoc reports and working directly with customers to ensure the information they receive is relevant and accurate to the request.
• Most of the job is centered around programming to create useful and insightful reporting. Currently, we use a combination of SAS and SQL to pull, manipulate and report the data. However, we will be shifting to Python by the end of 2026. With the shift to Python, we are also looking to expand on our different data visualization tools to include dashboarding and modeling. These skills would be highly beneficial to a candidate as well.
• We are looking for reporting skills, rather than software development skills. The job is very different from IT/networking, and day-to-day can look quite different as well. We are also looking for programmers that can handle mathematical computations using programming languages.
• The analyst filling this role will need to have excellent communication skills as they will be in meetings with external vendors and as needed directly with CMS. These communication skills should speak to the non-technical as well, since not everyone involved will be at the same level of data understanding of what we do. Analyst should be capable of creating clear and detailed written documentation around the reports they are delivering and will need to have a deep understanding of their role withing the contract as there are a lot of moving pieces. They will need to be able to quickly adapt to new environments and ways of working as we have seen CMS change programming languages and other systems frequently in other contracts. Finally, we are looking for someone who is self-motivated, confident and willing to hop on to challenging problems sometimes with little direction.
