You'll collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure data is reliable, scalable, secure, and aligned with business needs in a fast-evolving insurance technology environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, document, and maintain scalable data models, data pipelines, and storage solutions for insurance products and analytics.
• Architect and optimize cloud-based data platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) for performance, cost efficiency, and security.
• Collaborate with engineering, product, actuarial, underwriting, and data science teams to understand data requirements.
• Implement data governance, data quality, and metadata management practices.
• Define and enforce data architecture standards, patterns, and best practices.
• Support integration of third-party data sources, including telematics, claims data, customer data, and policy data.
• Perform root cause analysis and troubleshoot complex data issues.
• Partner with security teams to ensure compliance with industry regulations (e.g., HIPAA, SOC 2, state insurance requirements).
• Evaluate new technologies, tools, and frameworks that can improve data capabilities.
• Produce clear technical documentation, diagrams, and guidelines.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related field.
• 3–7 years of experience in data architecture, data engineering, or a similar role.
• Strong experience with cloud data platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
• Proficiency in data modeling (conceptual, logical, physical) and database design for relational and NoSQL systems.
• Hands-on experience with ETL/ELT pipelines, data orchestration tools (e.g. Airflow, dbt), and data warehousing.
• Strong SQL skills and familiarity with distributed computing frameworks (e.g., Spark).
• Experience designing data solutions for analytics, reporting, and machine learning workflows.
• Understanding of data security, privacy, and governance best practices.
• Excellent communication and documentation skills.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in the insurance or insurtech industry (claims, underwriting, actuarial, policy lifecycle, regulatory reporting).
• Familiarity with insurance-specific data standards (e.g., ACORD).
• Experience with data cataloging tools (e.g., Collibra, Alation).
• Exposure to event-driven architecture (Kafka, Kinesis, or similar).
• Knowledge of API-based data integrations.

Soft Skills

• Strong problem-solving and analytical abilities.
• Ability to work independently in a fully remote environment.
• Collaborative mindset with the ability to translate business needs into technical solutions.
• Detail-oriented approach with a focus on data quality and reliability.
