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 120 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 17 states.
We've raised over $75m in venture capital and we're looking to expand our team with more talented engineers.
Tech stack involves Ruby / Rails and Javascript / React Native.
