- Knowledge of GIS applications, such as ArcView, and SQL Server is a plus.
- Acquire and analyse building inventory, damage, insured loss, and insurance claims data to understand vulnerability across global regions.
- Work with proprietary datasets and integrate relevant insights into catastrophe risk models.
- Develop vulnerability functions and monetary loss curves for structural and non-structural components of buildings and infrastructure.
- Assess the effects of wind, tornadoes, hail, and snow on building and infrastructure performance.
- Implement research findings through loss simulation code and analytical tools.
- Validate model outputs and probabilistic risk assessments.
- Use GIS and related tools for data analysis and visualisation.
- Conduct real-time and virtual building damage assessments during and after significant natural catastrophe events.
