Associate Director, Advanced Analytics Global Rare

Join the Alnylam Commercial Data and Analytics team and help build a product-driven engine that turns data-driven insights into deployed decisions with measurable business impact. As part of Customer Experience and Innovation, you will work cross-functionally with technical and business partners to accelerate commercial outcomes by standardizing what we build, how we build it, and how we deliver it through the tools and workflows business users rely on every day.

As Associate Director, Advanced Analytics Global Rare, you will be the key analytics strategic partner for Rare business leaders in the US, international, and emerging markets. You will collaborate fluidly with Commercial Data and Analytics Value Teams to deliver and manage decision products that enable specific business outcomes such as advanced patient finding, competitive performance understanding, and improved patient engagement. Your in-depth understanding of disease areas, commercial data sources, and Rare business objectives will ensure robust integrated delivery for headquarters, customer, and patient-facing teams.

In this role, you will bring product thinking to analytics end-to-end. You will be deeply embedded with the business to lead discovery and problem framing, define decision logic and success measures, and partner with engineering and platform product management to deliver analytics that are adopted, measurable, and continuously improved. You will work within and across multiple Value Teams, leading on specific outcomes while also building reusable analytical components and shared standards that accelerate delivery across the broader portfolio.

The position will be based in Cambridge, MA.

• Deliver decision-ready insights with clear storytelling and stakeholder-ready visuals, including executive-level readouts that drive decisions and follow-through.
• Partner with engineering to move prototypes into production and define expectations for monitoring, retraining, and operational performance where models are involved.
• Partner with Data Stewardship to define and use single source of truth metrics, ensure traceability to governed definitions and gold-layer data products, and contribute to analytics engineering using dbt-informed specifications and documentation.
• Use AI tooling to increase efficiency and throughput, including AI-native IDEs and safe use of agentic AI analytics when appropriate; operate in agile delivery rhythms using Jira and GitHub-based version control for analytic artifacts.
