The Opportunity
The UX team at Root Insurance is a collaborative, high-impact group with a mission to redefine insurance by designing products and experiences our customers love.
Insurance isn’t an industry known for great customer experience or design, but that’s exactly what makes this role exciting. People don’t expect to be delighted when managing their policies, filing claims, or updating coverage—but we believe they should be. As a Senior Product Designer, you’ll help shape the future of insurance by designing experiences that challenge the status quo and set new standards for what’s possible.
You’ll thrive in this role if you move fluidly between high-level strategy and execution, advocate for doing the right thing elegantly, and have a deep passion for problem-solving through design to deliver human-centered products.
We are hiring for this role to focus on Partnerships and Embedded Insurance, a new and emerging space that is a strategic priority for Root. Success in this role requires comfort with ambiguity, strong collaboration across diverse stakeholders, and the ability to move quickly while maintaining a rigorous, thoughtful design process.
Root is a "work where it works best" company. While we have an HQ office in Columbus, OH, where we meet a few times a year, we support working from any location in the U.S.

Salary Range: $118,000 - $148,000 (Bonus & LTI Eligible)
