Responsibilities

Operate as a bridge between the Data team and Risk team - not just to maintain what exists, but to explore what's possible. Deeply understand Risk's problems, priorities, and workflows rather than delivering models over the fence
Build analytical and machine learning models that drive business decisions across our insurance/actuarial functions - including next-generation approaches that challenge industry conventions
Partner with our risk and insurance team to support loss modeling, pricing analyses, and portfolio performance metrics, while identifying novel data sources that haven't been leveraged in this industry
Design and run experiments (e.g. A/B tests, causal inference analyses) to measure product and pricing impacts
Translate complex analytical findings into clear recommendations for non-technical audiences
Dig into data, identify patterns, and move quickly from question to insight to action
