Job description

Established in 2021, Independence Pet Holdings is a corporate holding company that manages a diverse and broad portfolio of modern pet health brands and services, including insurance, pet education, lost recovery services, and more throughout North America.
We believe pet insurance is more than a financial product and build solutions to simplify the pet parenting journey and help improve the well-being of pets. As a leading authority in the pet category, we operate with a full stack of resources, capital, and services to support pet parents. Our multi-brand and omni-channel approach include our own insurance carrier, insurance brands and partner brands.

Beyond model development, this role will frame complex business problems, translate analytical findings into clear and actionable insights, and partner closely with stakeholders across product, marketing, actuarial, and operations to drive data-informed decisions. Reporting to the Head of Analytics, the Lead Data Scientist will help shape the data science roadmap, champion best practices in experimentation and modeling, and contribute to building a strong analytical culture across IPH.

  • Partner with actuarial, product, and analytics teams to set data science goals and objectives and translate business questions into analytical solutions
  • Collaborate with engineering and analytics teams to deploy models into production and ensure scalable, maintainable solutions
  • Communicate insights and recommendations to technical and non-technical audiences, leveraging learnings from insurance and other consumer-facing industries
