Staff Applied Scientist
🚗 Why us?
Your car and your home are the two most expensive things you’ll ever own — and the hardest to manage. At Jerry.ai, we’re building the first super app to help everyday Americans take control of both. From insurance and financing to repairs and real estate, we’re reimagining what it means to own and maintain your car and home. This is a $5 trillion+ problem — and we’re the only company tackling it end to end.
2024 was a milestone year for Jerry.ai. We delivered nearly 50% year-over-year revenue growth while reaching profitability for the first time in our history.
And we're just getting started! Our growth is driven by forward-thinking technology; Harvard Business Review covered the success of our chatbot less than a year after its launch and Jerry.ai is getting mentioned in many conversations about our use of GenAI, such as this Forbes article.
