Responsibilities

On the Risk Analytics team within the Actuarial and Underwriting department, you will help Humana's employer group segment grow sustainably, allowing Humana to help members achieve lifelong well-being!

You'll be a member on a team that creates, maintains, and monitors predictive risk models used to underwrite existing and prospective group customers.

You'll need to investigate potential issues with the models, analyze opportunities for improvement in model usage and the models themselves, and help project cost and ROI associated with Humana's investment in these models.

We interact with IT, Data Scientists, Underwriting, Sales, and various other business function leaders to ensure our risk models and underwriting tools meet their needs.

Sometimes solving a problem requires a very practical solution. Sometimes the solution is technical. It is important that you can take a problem and quickly develop an understanding of how insights gained from detailed data relate to the overall business process. At that point you'll be able to recommend the most efficient, appropriate solution for the problem at hand.

You'll be part of a team of actuaries and other analytically minded teammates intent on innovation, learning, and constantly improving business results!

Combine large, disparate data sources together in a manner that allows us to build and monitor predictive models.
Measure and monitor the accuracy of predictive models, and will work with IT and business partners to bring them into production.
Build new predictive models or adjust existing ones under the advisement of experienced predictive modelers.
