About The Position

We are a small data science research team with a mandate to build future-ready capabilities and strategic differentiation for PartnerRe’s Life & Health business globally, working on a horizon beyond 2 years.



This role's initial and primary focus is medical underwriting in life insurance: turning data and medical research into insight that shapes how we assess biometric risk over the years ahead, not necessarily how we operate today. As a research team, priorities are set collectively with our stakeholders and evolve with business needs. The role may extend into other areas over time, potentially including AI applications or actuarial questions, as the team's agenda develops. This is not a subject matter expert role in medical underwriting. We are data scientists who support and inform underwriters and medical officers, not a team building independent underwriting authority. Our day-to-day work is currently primarily in R, reflecting where our core infrastructure is strongest today, though this may shift over time. Python is supported for specific needs, and our broader computing infrastructure is largely language agnostic. Key Responsibilities

Track emerging trends in medical research, data availability, and relevant technologies, translating them into a perspective on what the business will need to understand in the coming years, not just today. Turn ambiguous business questions into well-defined, answerable research questions. Prioritize research questions with the greatest potential business impact. Analyze data and build models to generate forward-looking insights. Evaluate and adapt emerging technical methods to meet PartnerRe’s specific needs.

Communicate findings clearly to underwriters, medical doctors, and othe
