Role Overview:
We’re seeking a Senior Associate to join the Experience Studies and Insights Team as an actuarial data specialist.

What You'll Do:
• Develop Analytical & Reporting Processes
Design, build, and maintain scripts, dashboards, and ETL-like routines (SQL, Python, BI tools) that draw from our enriched Experience Studies databases to deliver regular and ad-hoc reports.
• Database Ownership & Stewardship
Serve as the data owner:  monitor data quality, facilitate enhancements and validate reconciliations through UAT as data evolves in the new database system.
• Ad-Hoc Support & Scalability
Address one-off data requests for regulatory filings, industry studies, or internal analyses, while architecting scalable, repeatable processes that minimize manual processing over time.
• Continuous Improvement & Automation
Identify manual or repetitive tasks and automate them to reduce future workload, leveraging new technologies and best practices.
• Stakeholder Collaboration
Work closely with actuaries, data engineers, and IT to gather requirements, translate business needs into technical solutions
• Innovation & Research
Stay abreast of emerging data-analysis tools and pilot GenAI experimentations that enhance reporting and analytics within ad-hoc and automated workflows.
 
What You'll Bring:
• Bachelor’s degree in Actuarial Science, Data Science, Statistics, Computer Science, or a related field.
• 4+ years of experience in data analytics, data engineering, or reporting within an actuarial or financial-services setting.
• Strong SQL and Python skills; hands-on experience with BI tools (Tableau, Power BI, Looker or similar)
• Demonstrated ability to own end-to-end data processes autonomously—from requirements gathering through delivery and documentation.
• Excellent communication skills, with experience working with a variety of stakeholder groups.

Preferred (Nice-to-Have)
• Familiarity with life insurance and/or annuity products and interpreting their actuarial data.
• Experience with cloud data platforms (Redshift) and version control (e.g., Git).
• Actuarial credentials (ASA/FSA) or progress toward exam completion.
