Highmark Health is seeking a groundbreaking Lead Data Scientist, Research & Development, specializing in Graph Intelligence, who will not just work with graph data, but will define the future of how we harness relational insights in healthcare. This is a premier R&D position where you will lead the charge in inventing and proving out transformative graph-native analytical solutions. Your core mission is to push the boundaries of what's possible in advanced analytics by pioneering novel methodologies that leverage network science, knowledge graphs, and Graph Machine Learning (GML) to solve critical problems across the healthcare continuum. From personalizing patient care pathways to detecting complex fraud rings and understanding population health dynamics, your work will directly impact millions of lives. Essential Responsibilities
Work directly with the business to understand their business processes and aims, then identify how analytical solutions could help deliver value for them. Outline complex new use cases and create high level impact estimates. Identify data elements needed and where to get them (including proxies).
