Develop autonomous AI agents capable of goal setting, decomposition, planning, tool use, memory, and long-horizon execution. Build evaluation frameworks for alignment, reliability, and safety; identify goal misalignment and undesirable behaviors; and integrate agent systems with APIs, databases, search engines, and other tools. Responsibilities include designing production-ready machine learning systems, collaborating across teams, and advancing agent autonomy through planning, causal reasoning, model-based reinforcement learning, and language modeling.

Own the analytical function for a business area such as growth, product, AI and automation, or strategic partnerships. Define business problems, metrics, reports, analyses, and experiments; interpret data; and deliver recommendations that influence leadership decisions and business outcomes. The role requires independent analytical execution, strong SQL or Python skills, first-principles problem solving, persuasive communication, and ownership of ambiguous initiatives.

Own the analytical function for a core business area such as growth, product, AI and automation, or strategic partnerships. Define business problems, metrics, reports, analyses, and experiments; surface insights; and drive data-informed decisions with cross-functional stakeholders. The role requires independently structuring data, solving ambiguous problems, communicating findings clearly, and influencing leadership-level decisions using SQL or Python.

Owns the end-to-end development of cybersecurity vulnerability and exploit prediction models, including problem framing, feature engineering, training, evaluation, deployment, calibration, monitoring, and drift detection. The role addresses extreme class imbalance, hierarchical modeling, cold-start customers, and uncertainty quantification. It also requires explaining model outputs to security executives, publishing methodologies and benchmarks, and partnering with engineering to deploy reliable production systems.

Lead development and deployment of machine learning models, perform EDA and data engineering on large datasets, train models including LLMs and unstructured-data solutions, build Power BI dashboards, automate processes, present findings to leadership, and mentor junior data scientists while working with SQL, Python, AWS/Azure, Snowflake, and Salesforce.

Provides biostatistical data science and analytics support for clinical development and evidence generation. Collaborates with biostatistics, data management, clinical development, and medical affairs teams; applies statistics, mathematics, AI, and innovative technologies to clinical trial and real-world data. Contributes to clinical trial design, statistical analysis plans, clinical study reports, publications, and protocol development while following ICH and FDA guidelines.

Own end-to-end data science for a priority vertical (starting with Insurance): frame business problems, build and validate models, partner with ML engineering for deployment, monitor live ROAS performance, and drive measurable revenue and lead quality improvements.

Lead development of NLP and ML solutions for large-scale legal, news, financial, and business corpora. Build, train, evaluate, and deploy traditional and deep learning models (including LLMs), design scalable pipelines, evaluate SOTA tools, partner with product and engineering teams, and mentor junior staff while contributing to model monitoring and production best practices.

Lead end-to-end data science projects including predictive modeling, algorithm design, and data pipelines. Build campaign-focused models (turnout, partisanship), perform exploration and visualization, translate insights into memos/presentations, collaborate with engineering to productionize models, mentor junior data scientists, and prototype emerging AI solutions for product impact.

Lead development, validation, deployment, and quality control of advanced analytics and ML solutions for fraud detection, waste and abuse, investigative analysis, and program integrity. Provide technical leadership, translate stakeholder requirements, mentor team members, and ensure models are explainable, defensible, and production-ready.
