Disrupting an industry through data, technology, and speed is hard work – but the challenges we’ll tackle together are some of the most rewarding you’ll experience in your career.

Backed by AIG, Two Sigma and Hamilton Insurance Group, we have the horsepower and partners to make a big impact. If you are energized by making the complex, simple; the time consuming, easy; and the antiquated, tech-enabled, we want you on our team.

About this role:

We are looking to expand our small data science team (currently 1 person).  In this role, you will play a major part in shaping the direction and culture of the team.  You will work with a wide range of technologies and will work primarily on new systems in the near-term.  You will wear many hats as Attune grows, and few tasks will be off-limits.

We are seeking someone who is creative but also has solid fundamentals.  You should be passionate about automation and modeling, but should also be able to cut through the hype of the industry.  We value eagerness to both receive and provide feedback and criticism.  Ideally, you have some sort of portfolio demonstrating your creativity, curiosity, or educational efforts. 

Specific responsibilities include:

  • Analyze and report on our sales funnel: Who is purchasing what types of insurance, in what industries, at what price, through which partner, etc. Who returns as a customer and who leaves?
  • Identify which US small businesses are our best potential customers
  • Improve quality and speed of underwriting and pricing using new models and data sources
  • Develop experimental tools or web apps to conduct research or pitch ideas for new models or data uses
  • Analyze website traffic and user behavior

Qualifications for success:

  • You have at least 4 years of related work experience.
  • You're comfortable writing code and learning new technologies.
  • You have experience with or education in statistical thinking and quantitative methods. Machine learning experience a plus.
  • Experience in either Python or R strongly preferred.
  • We like the following technologies, and any experience in these is a plus:
    • Python (including Pandas, Numpy, Sklearn)
    • Flask
    • Postgresql, Sqlite
    • Linux, Bash
    • AWS
    • Javascript, HTML, CSS (including Angular, jQuery)
    • Git, Ansible, Nginx

 What we offer you:

  • An opportunity to change the small business landscape.
  • A great working environment that gives continuous improvement and encourages sharing ideas and taking risks to find better ways of doing things.
  • A culture that promotes great relationships, both inside and outside the office, through activities in our community and through company sponsored intramural clubs and events.
  • Hackathons that are not only fun and dedicated to pushing creativity, but where the best ideas are put into production.
  • Equity compensation.
  • Medical and 401(k) matching from day one.
  • Fully stocked kitchens with free snacks & drinks.
