Founder's Associate

Why we exist

Your car, home, and motorcycle aren't just purchases, they're the physical embodiment of the life you've worked hard to build. Yet the experience of owning them is stuck in the 90s. Every step of the journey — buying, insuring, maintaining, repairing, selling — is fragmented, complicated, and expensive.

Imagine having a trusted friend in your pocket who takes care of everything: they find you the right car or home at the right price, lock in the best insurance rate without you lifting a finger, remind you before that service appointment turns into an expensive repair, and help you sell at the best price when the time is right. That friend is Jerry.

We are building the first AI-powered advisor to manage all your physical assets. We started with your car in 2019, now we’re expanding into new verticals (e.g. home, motorcycle, RV, boat).

About this program

Our next chapter is about accelerating growth – going from 5M to 50M customers by 2030.

This year alone, we launched 5 new products – home insurance, property tax, motorcycle insurance, car repair shop bids, and roadside assistance. Each of these new businesses comes with its own operational complexity, distinct user personas and painpoints, and its own path to scale.

As our business expands, we have a growing list of ideas but not enough people to execute them. This program exists to close that gap. We are looking for 2-3 associates to work directly with, and be mentored by, our Cofounder/CEO, and work on some of the highest-leverage problems in our business.

Reporting directly to our CEO, you will have a unique opportunity to develop the craft of product building, learn how a serial founder/CEO thinks and makes decisions, and see/understand a late stage tech startup’s day-to-day challenges as it goes through a rapid growth phase. You will be exposed to nearly every function at the company (i.e., product, growth, operations, finance, engineering, data), learn how to execute big-picture strategies and navigate the intricacies of a complex business.

A successful graduate will likely go on to become a product leader, growth leader, or run a function here or elsewhere. If you’re looking for an opportunity to greatly accelerate your career trajectory, we’d love to hear from you.

Who we get excited about

• Owner: You act like your name is on the door. If something is broken, you feel responsible for fixing it, even if it’s outside of your swim lane.
• First principles thinker: You break ambiguous problems into clear hypotheses, and your instinct is to ask "What are we trying to accomplish here?" before jumping to "What is the solution?".
• Tenacious: You are highly resilient. No challenge is too difficult, no issue unsolvable.
• Sense of urgency: You have a strong bias for action and are impatient when progress is stalled.
