Company mission

To transform the insurance industry through a partnership between AI and human experts, ultimately making it more fair and affordable for everyone.

Role

Who you are

  • An ML expert who thrives on first principles problems that no one has ever worked on before
  • You love innovation and making an immediate impact – and are constantly driving toward launch and delivery thanks to your high degree of ownership and control
  • You love working on new and challenging problems – not incremental or marginal improvements – and you're supercharged by having interesting, unsolved problems continually present themselves
  • You are an ML Engineer / Data Scientist with 3+ years of experience, especially in highly scalable production environments
  • You have deep exposure to data science & ML tech stacks (sklearn, Keras / PyTorch, tuning frameworks), data analysis & modeling, and strive for scalable technical concepts and solutions
  • You’re a team player who is solutions-oriented
  • You have crisp written and verbal communication skills and can effectively correspond between technical and non-technical audiences

Desirable

  • Knowledge of Dagster, BigQuery, Vertex AI, GCP, Terraform, Spark, Kubernetes
  • Owned and deployed, and maintained model-serving pipelines in production
  • Expert skills at writing clean, efficient, and easy-to-understand code with unit tests and functional design patterns
  • Experience with advanced statistical modeling, especially probabilistic programming
  • Ambitious, collaborative, and empathetic values
  • A work style that is open to giving and receiving critical feedback and collaborating effectively across teams

What the job involves

  • Build ML models for production use
  • Perform in-depth exploratory data analysis to scope ML opportunities, identify potential issues in the data, and lay the groundwork for model design, training & evaluation strategies
  • Suggest and implement new features to improve model performance and business logic
  • Translate client business problems into ML problems
  • Build scalable machine learning models for claim time series forecasting and NLP text understanding
  • Continue to grow and learn in the data & ML space with a focus on business problems that require making sense of large-scale structured and unstructured datasets

Our take

EvolutionIQ is a data-driven claim guidance platform for insurance providers. Its products combine structured and unstructured claim data with external third party data to provide powerful claim guidance, in an attempt to modernize the claims operations process.

The company's offering is certainly an attractive one for businesses handling large volumes of these claims - the solutions aim to help insurance providers detect and prevent fraud without impacting their productivity and customer experience. Historically, the insurance industry has had access to vast amounts of data without optimizing how they use it. EvolutionIQ's machine learning algorithms harness the learnings from every data point, allowing for much more well-informed, actionable insights.

Competition is steep among AI insurance firms, and EvolutionIQ counts rivals such as CCC Intelligent Solutions and Riskcovry in this space. However, the market size is huge and ripe for disruption. With a valuation of more than $200 million following a successful VC funding round, EvolutionIQ is focused on the further development of its product and international expansion as it hopes to capture a larger slice of this $10 billion market.
