Job description

We’re hiring a Decision Scientist to build and extend the models, pricing logic, and financial simulations that support Caremark’s sales and underwriting decisions. This is a hands-on, build-oriented role - most of your time will be spent writing Python and SQL that ships into production tools real underwriters and pricing leaders use.

Requirements

3+ years of hands-on experience delivering data science or advanced analytics in a regulated, numbers-heavy environment (healthcare, PBM, insurance, banking, or similar)

  • Solid statistical fundamentals: regression, classification, clustering, time-series forecasting, hypothesis testing

  • Working knowledge of cloud data platforms (GCP, Azure, AWS, or Databricks/Snowflake) and PySpark or equivalent for large-scale data work

  • Comfort with financial concepts (margin, loss ratio, premium, retention) - or proven ability to pick them up fast

  • Low-maintenance, high-output: takes context and runs, flags own mistakes early, frames every analysis around the decision it supports

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience building pricing models, risk scoring tools, portfolio optimization logic, or financial simulation frameworks

  • Familiarity with pharmacy claims data, PBM economics, or actuarial concepts

  • Streamlit, Dash, or similar Python application frameworks

  • Experience deploying models or analytical tools into production environments, Bachelor’s degree in a quantitative field (Statistics, Mathematics, Economics, Computer Science, Engineering, Actuarial Science, or similar) required. Master’s degree preferred.
