If you thrive on building elegant, high-quality software that solves complex problems, love optimizing workflows with automation, and get excited about delivering solutions that your colleagues will actually love using, this role is for you. You’ll work closely with Product and Actuarial leaders, contributing to a culture of innovation where data and software intersect to drive better pricing, underwriting, and business decisions.
 
What You'll Do:

• Analyze and interpret complex datasets to identify trends and patterns.
• Programmatically streamline and automate processes.
• Collaborate with business stakeholders to understand analytical needs.
• Communicate findings and recommendations to technical and non-technical audiences.
• Utilize tools like Python and SQL for data analysis and modeling.

 
What We're Looking For:

• Bachelor’s degree in Data Science, Actuarial Science, Statistics, Computer Science, or related field.
• At least 7 years of experience as a data analyst, scientist, ML/AI engineer, or actuary.
• At least 3 years of experience within the P&C insurance industry.
• Experience in team management or as a senior individual contributor.
• Strong programming skills in Python; experience with Git.
• Excellent analytical and communication skills.

The base salary for this role can range from $155K - $175K, based on a full-time work schedule. An individual’s ultimate compensation will vary depending on job-related skills and experience, geographic location, alignment with market data, and equity among other team members with comparable experience.
