About the role
- Apply hands on analytics and data expertise to solve complex, fast moving financial and operational problems using PBM data.
- Design, develop and maintain scalable, analytics ready data models (primarily in dbt) that power a PBM financial risk engine, leveraging claims, eligibility, pricing, rebates, guarantees and contract data in our Unified Data Warehouse (UDW).
- Translate complex PBM contract and pricing structures (e.g plan paid vs. member paid, rebates, guarantees, caps, fees, exclusions) into transparent, auditable data models that enable financial analysis and risk assessment.
- Partner closely with underwriting, finance, client success and PBM operations teams to understand financial assumptions, risk drivers and reporting requirements and convert them into reliable metrics and models.
- Build curated financial and risk data marts and semantic layers that enable self service analysis for forecasting, scenario modeling and executive reporting among other things.
- Own core financial KPIs and risk metrics E2E from raw claims and contract inputs through production grade models, ensuring consistency and traceability.
- Implement automated data quality checks, reconciliations and controls to validate financial outputs and ensure alignment with source systems and contractual logic.
- Continuously optimize data models and warehouse performance to support large scale claims volumes and time-sensitive financial analysis.
- Contribute to data governance by establishing modeling standards, documentation and guardrails that support auditability, explainability and long term maintainability.
- Communicate complex financial insights clearly through data memos, documentation and presentations for both technical and non technical stakeholders.
- Explore advanced analytics and predictive modeling use cases (e.g utilization forecasting, trend analysis, risk stratification, margin sensitivity) to enhance financial planning and decision making. Experience operationalizing ML models is a plus.
Requirements
- Expert level proficiency in SQL and statistical programming (Python, R).
- 3 to 4 years working experience with data modeling, dbt and analytics engineering best practices (testing, documentation, incremental models, semantic layers).
- Experience in cloud platforms (preferably in AWS) and hands-on experience in cloud data warehouses (Redshift or Snowflake).
- Business acumen with exposure to PBM, healthcare finance, underwriting or actuarial concepts.
- Experience modeling large scale claims data and translating contractual or financial rules into clear, testable data logic.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
- Ability to understand, tackle, and solve problems from both technical and business perspectives.
- Comfortable partnering closely with finance, underwriting and operations stakeholders to align data models with real world financial decisions.
- High attention to detail and a bias toward accuracy, transparency and explainability in financial reporting.
