    1. 7+ years<\/strong>\u00a0of experience in SAS programming and development.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Proven track record of at least\u00a02-3 SAS 9 to Viya migration projects<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Deep expertise in SAS 9.4 (Base, STAT, Macros, DI Studio, EG) and SAS Viya (SAS Studio, CAS, Job Execution).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Strong experience with\u00a0SASPy, sasctl<\/strong>, and SAS CLI for automation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Knowledge of Python and open-source integration within Viya.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Must have experience in the Life Sciences\/Pharma industry<\/strong>\u00a0with a strong grasp of GxP validation and 21 CFR Part 11.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
