Data Analyst

Work Arrangement: RemoteTime Commitment: Up to 20 hours per week

Contract Duration: Up to 6 months1.

Position Summary: The contractor will update the Arizona Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS)data dashboard by incorporating the most recent available Phase 9 survey data. The existingdashboard contains Phase 8 data and is built in Microsoft Power BI using SQL Server. PRAMS is an ongoing, site-specific, population-based surveillance system that collects data fromwomen who recently had a live birth on their experiences before, during, and after pregnancy. Thepurpose of PRAMS is to identify groups of women and infants at high risk for health problems, tomonitor changes in health status, and to measure progress towards goals in improving the healthof mothers and infants. The contractor will modify existing SAS programs to recalculate PRAMS weighted estimates, assess comparability between Phase 8 and Phase 9 variables, and update dashboardvisualizations in Power BI and supporting content. The contractor will ensure that estimates arestatistically appropriate, validated, and clearly presented, with appropriate documentation ofvariables that are not comparable across survey phases. A draft dashboard must be completed by the end of month five, with final revisions and dashboardlaunch by the end of the six-month contract period.2.

Key Responsibilities? Data analysis: Review and modify existing SAS programs to incorporate two to three yearsof Phase 9 data with over 2,400 observations and recalculate PRAMS estimates usingappropriate complex survey methods, including survey weights and variance estimation. ? Phase comparability assessment: Review Phase 8 and Phase 9 survey instruments, codebooks, and variable definitions to identify comparable, conditionally comparable, andnon-comparable variables. Document differences and recommend appropriateapproaches for cross-phase comparisons. ? Dashboard updates: Integrate validated estimates into the existing SQL Server and PowerBI workflow and update relevant tables, visualizations, indicators, filters, and explanatorytext. Complete minor corrections to the existing dashboard.?
