Areas at the earlier date are counted in today's role tags. - **Cite**: Alion, open roles at Point72, 14 November 2026. https://alion.io/company/point72/jobs #### By area - Area: Data Science; Open then: 45; Open now: 41; Change: \-4 - Area: Backend; Open then: 27; Open now: 19; Change: \-8 - Area: Support; Open then: 13; Open now: 15; Change: 2 - Area: Early Careers; Open then: 12; Open now: 14; Change: 2 - Area: Finance; Open then: 12; Open now: 7; Change: \-5 - Area: Analytics; Open then: 12; Open now: 9; Change: \-3 - Area: Management; Open then: 10; Open now: 8; Change: \-2 - Area: Security; Open then: 8; Open now: 10; Change: 2 #### Biggest move - **Area**: Backend - **Kind**: down - **Open then**: 27 - **Open now**: 19 ### Key facts - **Answer**: As of Nov 14, 2026, Alion lists 171 open roles at Point72.
