Job Description

This opening is for a Principal Model Development Platform Engineer at Extreme Event Solutions, a Verisk business in Boston, MA. This role will report to the Assistant Vice President of Operations for the Research and Model Development Department. This department consists of many engineers, scientists, economists, analysts, and mathematicians who develop and maintain a global suite of probabilistic risk models for natural hazards and emerging perils. These risk models are implemented into commercial software products that support the quantification and transfer of risk across the globe.

As a Principal Model Development Platform Engineer, you will be uniquely situated between researchers who develop probabilistic risk models and software engineers who develop our commercial software products. This role will be primarily responsible for developing and maintaining a unified simulation platform that natural catastrophe models will leverage for performing risk calculations. The architecture of this platform should be compatible with the structure of the commercial software product while providing researchers the functionality and flexibility that is required to explore new and innovative modeling techniques. We are looking for someone who has an interest in developing natural catastrophe models in addition to being an excellent software developer. This person should be able to comprehend the physical concepts that underpin models of different perils as well as understand the flow of large datasets through a series of complex processing algorithms.

To be successful in this role, you will need to :

• Learn how the existing suite of risk models is developed by researchers
• Collect feedback from modeling and development teams on challenges and inefficiencies
• Understand the implementation of these models within the commercial software product
• Standardize a simulation platform that can accommodate a diverse portfolio of peril models
• Imagine new approaches for efficiently handling vast amounts of simulation data
• Ensure that deliverables satisfy the requirements of our researchers and downstream development partners
