It's the way insurance should be. And it's all conveniently in an app. What draws people to Root. We're a venture-backed technology company. Our early success is in large part due to our unwavering standards in hiring. We recognize that our product is only as good as the people building and promoting it. We look for individuals who find solutions by going through the cycle of ideation to implementation with curiosity, rigor, and a highly analytical lens. Ask anyone who works here and you'll hear similar reasons for why they joined: Autonomy. For assertive self-starters, the opportunities to contribute are limitless. Impact.
