Catastrophe Modeling Analyst

Role: Catastrophe Modeling Analyst

Responsibilities

• Leverage third-party catastrophe models to obtain estimates of catastrophe risk of client's cedents.
• Justify and explain the CAT model outputs and ensure that they are reasonable and correct.
• Generate other reports to give a complete picture of the cedents' catastrophe exposure.
• Handle with minimal supervision the cat pricing of reinsurance submissions.
• Apply machine‑learning methods (e.g., similarity scoring and clustering) to clean, align, and analyze large exposure datasets—producing reliable, decision‑ready insights.
• Produce concise analytics artifacts—written reports/summaries, interactive dashboards (e.g., Power BI, etc.), and reproducible notebooks (Python/R)
