Description
Guidewire-Cyence is searching for a Senior Data Scientist to join us on our mission to transform cyber-insurance with the industry's leading cyber risk platform. Cyber is the #1 threat to US national security, above nuclear weapons, and our work here makes a meaningful impact in this space! You will report to the Director of Risk Modeling..

Who We Are, What We Believe, & What We Build

Guidewire is the AWS of insurance. As the market leader, 540 insurance companies run on our mission-critical platform. Every second, we support underwriters crafting policies and agents settling claims. We believe that making a great decision should not require 100 in-house data scientists. Our products range from cyber risk quantification to potent ML sandboxes. We are a post-IPO company with the vision to redefine insurance.

Who You Are

You are a passionate, detail-oriented, and creative problem solver with a strong background in Data Science and ML Engineering, excited by the prospect of pursuing hard problems and exploring the unknown, and passionate about the end-to-end lifecycle of modeling. You are inspired by working as a full-stack data scientist. You enjoy applying advanced quantitative methods such as statistical modeling, machine learning algorithms, numerical simulations, and optimization techniques to analyze complex datasets, build predictive models, and write production code. Experience in catastrophe modeling is a plus!

Responsibilities

  • Develop, calibrate, validate, and deploy for production cyber risk models for the (re)insurance and financial services markets.
  • Develop and implement methodologies to quantify the financial impact of cyber risk on single entities as well as large insured portfolios.
  • Develop and implement tools to effectively visualize the potential impact of cyber events.
  • Explore different data sources to come up with features and assumptions to enhance our set of probabilistic risk models.
  • Integrating/automating modeling processes in our production pipeline to feed our platform.
  • Define and implement a globally consistent best practice process for data validation, feature selection, and modeling of catastrophe exposures.
  • Champion best practices to design and extend a rapid and flexible modeling framework.
  • Communicate results to internal and external stakeholders.
  • Engage and collaborate directly with clients on a deep technical level.
  • Collaborate with other leaders across the Analytics organization, including Product Management, Engineering, and Client Engagement.

Qualifications and Requirements

  • PhD or MS degree in Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, Engineering, or similar quantitative disciplines.
  • Mastery in developing and maintaining end-to-end data and modeling pipelines using AWS Glue, Airflow, and Sagemaker.
  • Strong programming skills in Python and fluency in data manipulation(SQL, pandas, pyspark) and Machine Learning(Scikit-learn, statsmodel, XGBoost and etc) tools.
  • Experience working with AWS (or similar) tools/services like Athena, S3, EC2, Redshift, etc.
  • 5+ years of experience in statistical data analysis, feature engineering, predictive modeling, and data visualization
  • True passion for leading, inspiring, mentoring, and attracting world-class colleagues.
  • Experience working with different types of datasets (e.g., unstructured, semi-structured, with missing information).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to think critically and creatively in a dynamic environment, while picking up new tools and domain knowledge along the way.
  • A positive attitude and a growth mindset.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
