What You'll Work On
- Training infrastructure for underwriting
- Build and own the infrastructure layer that powers our underwriting model, trained on tens of millions of patients and hundreds of millions of rows of claims data.
- Make training reliable, reproducible, and scalable as data volume and model complexity grow.
- Real-time inference for quoting
- Build and own the API layer that produces quotes in seconds — serving a trained model against a much larger inference-time dataset, on the order of trillions of rows of claims across hundreds of millions of people.
- Own the latency, reliability, and scalability of the serving path the quoting product depends on.
- Accelerate data science iteration
- Build backtesting and validation infrastructure so model performance can be measured quickly and trustworthily.
- Remove friction from the path between an idea and a validated, production-ready model — make experimentation simpler than it's ever been.
What We're Looking For
- A strong track record building ML or data infrastructure in production at scale.
- Deep proficiency in Python, with comfort in processing large datasets (Spark, Databricks, or equivalent).
- Experience with model training pipelines and/or low-latency model serving in production.
- Experience building tooling that makes other people faster — feature testing, experiment tracking, backtesting, or similar developer/researcher-facing infrastructure.
- The ability to own systems end-to-end, set standards, and operate reliable production infrastructure (SLAs, monitoring, on-call).
- Genuine interest in the modeling itself — you want to occasionally get your hands into the data science, not only the infrastructure.
Nice to Have
- Prior experience in a regulated space like healthcare or insurance.
- Experience with MLOps tooling (MLflow or similar), feature stores, or experimentation platforms.
- Experience supporting data science or actuarial teams in production environments.
