Clinical Research Coordinator (San Diego, CA)*
Own Your Studies. Grow Your Career.
If you’re ready to step into real ownership of clinical trial coordination - managing your own studies, leading patient visits, and working with the independence that comes from having built a strong foundation - this role is the next step.
As a Clinical Research Coordinator I at Profound Research, you’ll serve as the primary coordinator for assigned studies at one of our sites. You’ll manage study activities from start-up through closeout, lead interactions with study participants, maintain audit-ready documentation, and work directly with investigators, sponsors, and CROs. This isn’t a support role - you own your studies, and your work directly impacts patient safety, data integrity, and trial outcomes.
What You’ll Do
Serve as primary coordinator for assigned clinical trials, managing study activities from start-up through closeout
Execute full visit flow independently - participant visits, protocol procedures, data collection, and documentation
Lead patient interactions with clarity and compassion, ensuring participants feel informed and supported throughout their study experience
Maintain accurate, timely, audit-ready documentation across source documents, CRFs, and EDC systems
Track and report adverse events, deviations, and safety findings in accordance with protocol and regulatory requirements
Communicate directly and professionally with investigators, sponsors, CROs, and internal teams
Support site readiness for monitoring visits and audits
What We’re Looking For
You’ve got some experience in clinical research and you’re ready for more responsibility. You’re organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable working independently. You take ownership of your work and follow through without being reminded.
Bachelor’s degree with 1+ year of relevant experience, OR Associate’s degree with 3+ years of relevant experience, OR High school diploma with 4+ years of relevant experience and at least 1 year of CRC experience
Experience performing clinical procedures including vital signs, EKGs, phlebotomy, and lab processing
Comfortable working independently and managing competing priorities
