Perform exploratory data analysis, validate data pipelines (SQL, Databricks, Azure), and turn complex datasets into clear recommendations with client-ready reporting, dashboards & relevant visualizations.
Act as the liaison between actuarial subject matter experts and engineering teams: translate actuarial specifications into technical requirements, review implementations, and validate via unit and integration tests.
Contribute to practice tooling, best practices, and business development; represent the practice at industry events.
