## About the role

Underwriting is at the core of Arlo. Every group we price depends on how accurately we can estimate the risk of the individual members inside, and the quality of the estimate is essential to the sustainability of our business. We’re hiring a Senior Data Scientist to own our underwriting model and continuously deploy measurable improvements to it based on learnings from real-world outcomes.

## What they're looking for

- 5+ years as a data scientist building predictive models that made it into production
- Deep proficiency in Python and SQL, with comfort processing large datasets using Spark and using common modeling packages
- A track record of owning a problem end-to-end in an ambiguous environment and shipping without being handed a spec
- Direct experience with healthcare data
- Strong instincts for feature engineering and model validation, and the judgment of how well results might be able to hold in production
- Interest in the larger business context. This is not a research endeavor, but a live model that directly changes our win rates, book size, and performance
