## Description

We are seeking a Senior Data Scientist for a Data Science Captain role to own the analytical and technical execution of two highly visible, high-impact portfolios:

 * Member Onboarding
 * Customer Experience (CX) improvement

Member onboarding is one of the most critical moments in the member lifecycle, shaping first impressions, driving early engagement, and acting as a powerful predictor of long-term retention and loyalty. Because onboarding touches every member, improvements in this space have enterprise-wide impact, directly influencing satisfaction, digital adoption, service utilization, and member retention.

In parallel, this role owns Customer Experience analytics for the Commercial line of business, focusing on reducing friction, improving satisfaction, and strengthening ongoing member relationships. Together, these portfolios enable CVS Health to retain members by delivering consistently better experiences from day one and beyond.

As the Data Science Captain, this individual owns how onboarding and CX solutions are designed, built, and measured, partnering closely with the Squad Lead and cross-functional stakeholders. The role requires strong technical leadership, an entrepreneurial mindset, and the ability to mentor other data scientists while operating effectively in a matrixed environment.

The ideal candidate brings deep expertise in advanced analytics, experimentation, causal inference, and AI/ML (including LLMs), along with strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills. They are comfortable navigating ambiguity, surfacing solution options and trade-offs, and ensuring analytical rigor while keeping retention and experience outcomes front and center.
