Forward-Deployed Actuary, Client Delivery

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in United States.

📋 Description

• Conduct client-facing actuarial analyses utilizing our primary methodologies: dynamic benchmarking, propensity score matching, and performance guarantee modeling.

• Develop, validate, and articulate financial models based on claims data — including Medicare Advantage, commercial, and Medicaid.

• Take ownership of deliverables from start to finish: from data extraction in BigQuery to a polished output that conveys a coherent narrative.

• Engage in client calls and presentations; simplify complex actuarial concepts for clinical and operational audiences without oversimplification.

• Assist in defining the scope and methodology for new projects, including input on Statements of Work (SOW) and documentation of assumptions.

• Collaborate with colleagues in data engineering and data science to enhance model infrastructure and delivery processes.

• Proactively identify gaps, highlight risks, and propose solutions rather than responding reactively.

⛳️ Requirements

• ASA designation is mandatory; FSA is an advantage.

• A minimum of 3 years of actuarial experience in healthcare (5 years preferred); backgrounds in consulting or payer roles are both acceptable.

• Significant familiarity with value-based care, population health analytics, or Medicare Advantage is essential.

• Proficiency in Excel modeling: must be adept with complex workbooks beyond just pivot tables.

• SQL / BigQuery: capable of independently writing and debugging queries against large claims datasets.

• AI tool proficiency: you actively utilize AI tools to enhance your productivity, rather than seeing them as mere novelties.

• Knowledge of common claims data sources (such as MarketScan, Komodo, CMS-RIF, or similar) is advantageous.

• Strong communication skills — both written and verbal — with audiences outside of the actuarial field.

• Ability to take ownership of deliverables under tight deadlines without a predefined guide.

• Well-organized to manage multiple concurrent client projects without losing track.

• Inquisitive mindset — you seek to understand the rationale behind model outputs.

🏝️ Benefits

• Competitive base salary.

• Equity participation — we seek teammates who are committed to our growth.

• Fully remote position with fairly flexible working hours.

• Health, dental, and vision insurance provided.

• Support for ongoing actuarial education and reimbursement for exam fees.
