Root

Root is an auto insurance carrier, like GEICO and Progressive. We use data science to identify and insure good drivers, reducing insurance premiums for good drivers significantly as a result. We’re a startup — we’re 500+ people who have been working on this since March 2015. We’ve built an iOS and Android app that gathers data on how well people drive. We use that to set insurance prices. To build the best possible product and user experience, we went through the arduous process of starting an insurance carrier from scratch. We’re focused on becoming a national insurance carrier and are now live in 24 states. We’ve raised $180M in Venture Capital since 2015 and we’re scaling rapidly. To do that, we’re looking to bring on more exceptionally talented engineers. Whether you’re just getting started out in software development or someone who is looking to lend your experience in leadership to a rapidly scaling engineering organization, we plan on doubling our engineering team in the next year alone. So, you’re in luck.
