• Insurance data model expertise (underwriting, claims, policy admin; delegated authority/bordereaux). Snowflake nice‑to‑have; familiarity with Polaris or COTS bordereaux tools a plus.
• Strategic project thinker with a methodical, documentation‑first approach.
• Proactive problem‑solver who anticipates risks and drives mitigations.
• Strong facilitator & influencer, comfortable guiding decisions and building consensus.
• Data‑driven, KPI‑oriented, and adaptable across waterfall, agile, or hybrid delivery.
