Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDeclan Naughton is an actuarial modeller and developer with 10+ years’ experience delivering pragmatic, high‑performance actuarial solutions for insurers and reinsurers. He builds interactive, visual models and tooling—author of calculang (calculang.dev) and the Actuarial Playground—a first‑of‑its‑kind visual cashflow model that showcases his focus on model structure, transparency and user interaction. Declan combines deep hands‑on technical work (Prophet, Python, SQL, cloud integrations) with process improvement that has repeatedly cut runtimes and eliminated out‑of‑model processes. He communicates complex actuarial ideas clearly through interactive blogs and presentations, including FOSDEM and a 2025 Society of Actuaries in Ireland webinar. Comfortable in any modelling language or environment, he pairs software craftsmanship with a practical understanding of financial reporting and valuation constraints. Based in Dublin, he uniquely blends modeller rigor with product‑style design thinking to make models more explainable and usable.
