About the Team

Care Coverage Analytics supports the data science and advanced analytics needs of Baylor Scott & White

Health and the Baylor Scott & White Quality Alliance (ACO). We support over 1.2 million lives across multiple

blocks of business by partnering with operational teams and subject-matter experts to improve healthcare

decisions and outcomes.

Job Summary

We are seeking a Data Scientist 1 to develop practical data science, natural language query (NLQ), and agentic

AI solutions for complex healthcare problems. Serving as both a data scientist and a consultative partner, you

will work with data scientists, data engineers, subject-matter experts, and business partners to frame

problems, challenge assumptions, and turn questions into reliable models and AI-enabled solutions that

improve access to trusted information, reduce manual work, and support better decisions.

In this role, you will contribute across the solution lifecycle, from problem definition and data preparation

through development, evaluation, deployment, and monitoring. You will study how people use NLQ and

agentic products and help turn behavioral patterns, feedback, and unmet needs into product improvements.

You will also use AI-assisted coding tools and learn to package repeatable work as reusable agent skills and

internal AI solutions. This applied role requires curiosity, sound data science foundations, and a commitment

to accuracy, security, explainability, and responsible AI.

Responsibilities and Time Allocation

Communication and Consulting | 25% : Build trusted relationships with business, clinical, and technical

partners. Clarify needs, frame problems, challenge assumptions, recommend appropriate analytical

approaches, establish success measures, and communicate findings, tradeoffs, and limitations in language that

supports decisions and action.

NLQ and Agentic AI | 20%: Develop and improve grounded NLQ applications, data science copilots, reusable

agent skills, and multi-step AI workflows for healthcare questions and recurring technical work. Contribute to

internal tools that accelerate development and test whether outputs are accurate, useful, and reproducible.

Applied Data Science and Experimentation | 20% : Apply statistical analysis, machine learning, natural

language processing, behavioral segmentation, and other appropriate techniques to healthcare and product

questions. Establish baselines, analyze user journeys and cohorts, design experiments, compare solution

options, document assumptions, and communicate limitations.

Model and Agent Lifecycle | 15% : Support models and AI agents from experimentation through deployment

and monitoring. Use validation checks, interaction patterns, feedback, task outcomes, and error analysis to

monitor adoption and performance drift and improve reliability, explainability, security, and user experience.

Data Preparation and Feature Development | 10% : Use SQL and Python to explore, prepare, and validate

claims, EHR, member, quality, and operational data. Develop reproducible modeling datasets and features,

assess data quality and bias, and use governed metrics, semantic models, metadata, and business definitions

to ground NLQ and agentic solutions in consistent information.

Continuous Learning and Knowledge Sharing | 10% : Participate in peer reviews, document methods, seek

feedback, share knowledge with teammates, and stay current with developments in data science, generative

AI, agentic systems, healthcare AI, and responsible AI.

Primary Responsibilities

+ Consult with business, clinical, and technical partners to clarify needs, frame healthcare problems,challenge assumptions, and define testable hypotheses and measurable success criteria.

+ Use SQL and Python to explore and prepare data, engineer features, perform statistical analysis,develop models, automate workflows, and validate results.

+ Develop grounded NLQ applications, data science copilots, and agentic workflows using appropriatemachine learning, natural language processing, retrieval, and tool-use techniques.

+ Evaluate models and agents for accuracy, task completion, consistency, source quality, latency, cost,safety, and user value; investigate failures and recommend improvements.

+ Analyze privacy-approved interaction data to identify behavioral segments, unmet needs, and recurringfailure patterns, then translate those findings into evaluation cases and product hypotheses.

+ Support experiments, pilots, and cohort analyses that measure whether product changes improve tasksuccess, adoption, trust, and business or clinical outcomes.

+ Apply responsible AI, security, data-minimization, de-identification, access, and retention practices tohealthcare data and product telemetry.

+ Use approved AI coding assistants responsibly and, under guidance, help turn repeatable work intoreusable prompts, agent skills, templates, or internal AI workflows for data science and analytics teams.

+ Develop reusable modeling datasets, features, metrics, tests, documentation, and monitoring controlswhile participating in source control, code review, deployment, and production support.

+ Present findings, assumptions, limitations, options, and recommendations clearly so technical and non-technical partners can make informed decisions and take action.

Strongly Preferred Qualifications

We value demonstrated ability, continuous learning, and collaborative problem-solving. Candidates are not

expected to bring every qualification.

+ Proficiency in Python and SQL for data exploratio...
