- Use Python to support execution work, including data validation, reconciliation, automation, and regression checks related to changes.
- Work directly with requestors to clarify requirements and translate them into technical implementation, escalating or coordinating with others only when needed.
- Apply strong judgment around data quality, reconciliation, and reasonableness, validating outputs before changes are promoted or released.
- Document data logic, assumptions, and changes clearly to support maintainability, knowledge transfer, and operational stability.

- You know Python and have hands‑on experience using it to support analytics, data validation, automation, or analytical workflows.
- You are comfortable analyzing large, structured datasets and apply strong judgment around data quality, reconciliation, and reasonableness of results.
- You can translate business or analytical questions into clear data requirements and communicate results effectively to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders, acting as a bridge between business needs and technical implementation.
- Experience with Databricks is considered an asset.
- Exposure to visualization tools (e.g., Power BI) is an asset.
- Professional actuarial designations (e.g., ACAS or FCAS) are considered an asset.
- You influence change and are committed to continuous improvement, in order to exceed client expectations.
- You leverage critical thinking skills to identify problems and proactively propose solutions.
- Your strong communication skills allow you to clearly convey messages.
- You’re an effective team player who shares knowledge to support our peers.
