At Root, we’ve reimagined car insurance to make it smarter, more equitable, and a better experience for all. Using the power of telematics, Root offers customers auto insurance based on how they drive, not based solely on their demographics. With its technology-forward products, Root is working to fundamentally change an industry for the better.
As the Senior Product Manager for Policy, Identity & Customer Servicing (PICs), you'll own critical customer touchpoints across the policyholder journey—from account management and identity controls to midterm changes, renewals, and service interactions. Your mission is to create intuitive, trust-building experiences that empower customers to manage their policies and deepen their relationship with Root.
This is a high-impact, high-visibility role. You'll need to thrive in ambiguity, drive strategic clarity, and balance both customer empathy and system complexity. You’ll partner cross-functionally with engineering, design, legal, operations, customer service, and marketing to define and deliver a compelling post-bind experience that increases loyalty and retention.
Root is a “work where it works best” company. This means we will support you working in whatever location that works best for you across the US.
