Job Description

At Verisk EES (Extreme Event Solutions), we do some cool advanced analytic stuff! We build stochastic models to simulate Catastrophic Events that will inform the insurance industry. Events include Hurricanes, Earthquakes, and Flooding, just to name a few. We then run Monte Carlo simulations to provide hundreds of thousands of years of simulated events. These help the insurance industry make objective and data-driven decisions based on their risk tolerances. As a company, we have a strong sense of purpose and know we are helping resilient communities worldwide.

• You will code in C# to develop unit & integration tests that you have optimized to run in an AWS environment, using a minimal footprint, while being organized and properly documenting your test cases.
• You will author API-based requests to execute scrum team integration tests to determine the pass/fail of the response. This will be implemented in our in-house automation framework.
• You will use your quantitative data analytics mindset to deliver on your day-to-day tasks, as you need to understand complex multi-model scenarios, and ensure your tests are robust, while you participate in cross-functional Agile Scrum teams.
• Strong analytical focus and attention to detail along with a methodical approach to problem solving is a strong foundation for success in this position.
• The position requires a strong commitment towards quality assurance that leverages the best practices already in place and helps to enhance them.
