Description

Model Development at hyperexponential

The Model Development Team are the experts' experts of hx Renew, knowing it top-to-bottom, inside-out - both breadth and depth. You'll know its limits and which can be pushed. You'll know every trick in the book, the secret combos, and the cheat codes. You'll combine all of this with a deep knowledge of insurance technology to present 'the art of the possible' (and sometimes seemingly impossible!) to our customers and help develop cutting-edge tech, while working alongside some of the brightest, most ambitious people in the tech and insurance industries.

Key responsibilities
  • Learn the hx Renew modelling platform - you'll ship your first models independently within days!
  • Build models in Python for seamless integration, using cutting edge approaches
  • Work directly with customer actuarial teams, partner developers and our internal development teams to solve the most complex coding problems using Python
  • Develop cutting-edge technical solutions while working with incredibly bright, passionate, ambitious people
  • Review our existing Python model development approach and contribute to our best-practice guides
  • Consistently contribute to and improving our internal and external training & development materials
  • Day-to-day quality assurance process of in-flight client and internal projects

Required skills & experience
  • A flair for Python - we'll take you to the next level here but you'll need production grade Python experience to hit the ground running
  • 4+ years of experience using predictive modelling and advanced analytics methods
  • Exposure to insurance or reinsurance pricing techniques
