At Truveta, we are building something that has never existed before, bringing together healthcare, science, and technology to tackle some of the most important challenges in human health. Our mission calls us to think big, move with urgency, and build with purpose. We are looking for exceptional people who are energized by hard problems, inspired by the opportunity to improve health, and committed to building a company and culture where talented people can do their best work.

Our team is a special combination of software, health, and big data experience. We are building a talented team of passionate, mission-oriented, and innovative thinkers.

Truveta was born in the Pacific Northwest, but we have employees who live across the country. Our team enjoys the flexibility of a hybrid model and working from anywhere. In person attendance is required at least once per year for an onsite meeting.

For overall team productivity, we optimize meeting hours in the pacific time zone. We avoid scheduling recurring meetings that start after 3pm PT, however, ad hoc meetings occur between 8am-6pm Pacific time. #LI-remote

Who We Need

We're looking for a principal-level statistical privacy expert who sets the direction for disclosure risk strategy across Truveta's entire data platform — structured, imaging, clinical notes, and emerging areas like genomic data — and who already holds the judgment, track record, and credibility to sign Expert Determinations under HIPAA. Beyond deep technical mastery, we're seeking a recognized leader who defines the methodological standards others follow, serves as the final technical authority on the most complex and novel determinations, develops senior and junior team members toward independent signing authority, and represents Truveta's privacy rigor to health system partners, customers, regulators, and the broader scientific community.

This Opportunity

The Principal Privacy Biostatistician reports to the Senior Director of Risk Analytics and serves as the senior technical authority for statistical disclosure control across Truveta. This individual owns the de-identification methodology framework for the platform, signs Expert Determinations under 45 CFR §164.514(b)(1) for the highest-complexity, highest-visibility, and first-of-their-kind data products, and acts as the final reviewer and co-signer for determinations prepared by other members of the team.

There is no professional license or certification that confers this signing authority — it is earned through demonstrated, documented judgment, expertise and experience. This role is designed for someone who already holds that track record, has defended their determinations under scrutiny, and is ready to shape how the organization exercises that authority at scale.

Responsibilities:

- Set the vision and own the end-to-end statistical disclosure control framework for Truveta's data platform, defining the methodological standards, risk thresholds, and documentation requirements used by the entire Risk Analytics team.
- Serve as a signing Expert Determiner for the most complex, novel, and high-visibility data products, applying generally accepted statistical and scientific principles to determine that re-identification risk is "very small," and documenting the reasoning to a standard that stands on its own under audit, regulatory review, or legal challenge.
- Act as the final technical reviewer and co-signer for Expert Determinations prepared by Senior and staff Privacy Biostatisticians; establish and run the peer review and case-defense process that governs the team's signing authority.
- Lead the development of risk methodology for new and emerging data modalities (e.g., genomic data, linked multi-modality data, and AI/ML-derived data products), partnering with clinical informatics, Legal, and Product to define Truveta's approach before these products go to market.
