Company mission
To improve the quality of life of our members and physicians by reducing doctor-insurer friction and increasing visibility into the health of each patient, leading to improved care.
Role
Who you are
- Have an advanced degree in a quantitative field, especially dealing with complex data-driven results, or equivalent experience, with a minimum of a Master's degree plus 3+ years of relevant work experience or Ph.D. with 2+ years of relevant experience
- Have a strong foundation in probability and statistics, and demonstrated facility with machine learning tools, including SQL and python, as well as statistical and machine learning packages
- Have demonstrated success using data science to deliver clear enterprise value in a business function
- Are comfortable leading and have successfully led a large-scale project from opportunity identification to business value
- Are able to improve the work of those around you via direct mentorship, code review, informal conversations, and leadership by example
- Can clearly articulate how your work accrues to business value and can contextualize that value with respect to top-level business objectives
- You want to create impact with your work by finding insights in the data that unlock value and improve outcomes
- You have a strong understanding of how to structure analyses and experiments to yield interpretable, actionable results
- You reason holistically. From project scope to priority to implementation, you'll have an impact on how decisions get made
- You are comfortable acting autonomously in ambiguous and dynamic environments
- You are fearless in the face of messy data, and adept at programmatically structuring and cleaning records collected from the real world
- You strive to automate as much as possible, yet understand the value of explicitly incorporating human decisions into the systems you build
- You have just as much interest in helping other people move faster as you do building your own analyses
What the job involves
- Clover's Data Science team is charged with leveraging our data—our most important asset—to generate value for our members. From understanding how the member experience impacts clinical outcomes to making our home visits more efficient and effective, our team pushes out insights central to executing on our core mission.
- And our impact is tremendous: you'll be able to point to one of our members and say, “I helped make that person's life better.”
- We’re looking for a Senior Data Scientist to help us build a revolutionary new healthcare company
- Lead large-scale projects from ideation through delivering enterprise value
- Have a broad problem-solving toolkit and know how to apply it. When problems call for out-of-the-box solutions, you will apply them effectively. When problems call for boutique solutions, you can evaluate the trade-offs and choose a solution that maximizes velocity
- Implement broad solutions that are bug-free and well-tested. Where possible, your work reduces complexity rather than adding it
- Understand the problems faced by the business and deliver results that meaningfully solve some of these problems
- Proactively engage with stakeholders across all levels of Clover to understand needs
- Uncover and mitigate risks and assumptions that may prove to be intractable later
- Serve as a trusted advisor and thought partner and ensure that projects are delivered on time and to spec. Within the team, serve as a mentor and collaborator, improving peers’ ability to deliver
Our take
Clover Health is a medical insurance company operating as a Preferred Provider Orgaization for Medicare Advantage, the Medicare plan for elderly American citizens. It aims to reduce the doctor-insurer friction to increase visibility into the health of patients.
Through its approach, Clover's physicians are able to focus on people, rather than paperwork. It has a patient-centered analytics and dedicated care management team, and thus is able to rapidly identify potential healthcare risks to provide preventative care. This helps to provide a more sophisticated level of care than existing providers, even if its market share is relatively slim compared to competitors like UnitedHealthcare and Humana.
Over the years it has performed well in a rapidly growing market, but in 2021 ran into issues with profitability in the market due to inefficient costings, an issue it is steadily nipping in the bud in 2023. However, the number of elderly Americans has doubled over the past 25 years, and the market is expected to do the same between now and 2025. This upward trend brings hope of revitalising the growth and strong financial performance Clover has seen in recent years, especially as it focuses more on profitability through 2023.
