About the role

- Partner with Product, Research, Operations, Marketing, and Brokerage leadership to close the loop from survey signal to product and policy change
- Make agentic workflows the default operating model for the team. Design how analysis, pipeline development, QA, documentation, and recurring reporting get delegated to agents, and hold the team accountable to that standard

- Lead, mentor, and develop a team of data scientists and engineers
- Partner closely with Finance, Product, Engineering, Operations, and other key departments to translate complex business questions into scalable, trustworthy analytics
