About the company 

At Johnson & Johnson (J&J), we are working to create a world without disease. Transforming lives by finding new and better ways to prevent, intercept, treat and cure disease inspires us.  

The Global Epidemiology team’s mission is to advance patient health by enabling informed decision-making through generating reliable real-world evidence (RWE) on the safety and benefits of J&J products. 

The project 

The candidate will join the Epicenter, a group within the Global Epidemiology team, supporting RWE generation across therapeutic areas with solutions for real-world data (RWD) source identification, feasibility and study analytics.

• shortlisting potential fit-for-purpose data assets,
• drafting the feasibility assessment protocol and feasibility analysis plan,
• contributing to the writing of programming scripts (as needed),
• liaising with internal cross-functional study teams and external data partners/providers,
• contributing to the evaluation of the feasibility assessment results and database selection.

Expected deliverables: feasibility assessment plan (or feasibility assessment report, depending on the status of the project at the time of the internship).

Location: J&J Stockholm Office (Kolonnvägen 45, 170 67 Solna); possibility for partial remote work.

Time period: Q1 – Q2 2026 (TBD) on a full-time basis.
