Cytel is a biostatistics-focused CRO pairing clinical analytics services with its own trial design software. The stack splits in two: CDISC SDTM/ADaM, SAS, Medidata Rave and Phoenix WinNonlin for regulated trial work, plus React, Angular, .NET Core and PostgreSQL for in-house software. Hiring skews to senior and principal data and research staff across Europe, India and the Americas, with recurring pain around legacy data migration to CDISC standards.
