About the Opportunity

Jerry is looking for a Data Scientist to join our growing team! We achieved profitability in early 2024 and have ambitious goals for the next few years: scale from 5M to 50M customers and become a $10B business.

As a Data Scientist, you will play a key role in championing data-driven decisions across the company’s most critical business initiatives, including carrier growth and development, and building new products from 0-1. As part of the Data Science & Analytics team, you will leverage advanced machine learning models to conduct in-depth analyses and extract insights that will shape our growth strategies.

Jerry is building the first super app to make car ownership affordable and accessible – covering insurance, buy/sell, registration, loans, safety, repairs, parking, etc., within a $2T market in the U.S. We started with insurance in 2019 and have since launched loan refinancing, driving insights, a repair marketplace, car diagnostics, and a GenAI-powered chatbot & voicebot. We have amassed over 5M customers, raised $240MM in funding, scaled our revenue 60X, and our team to 225 across 6 countries.

A Teammate's Perspective:

"The biggest difference between my current role at Jerry and my past life at BCG is being able to feel the direct impact my work has on the business, every day. In consulting, I rarely felt like my work was having any impact on the world, despite advising the largest global corporations. Here, I can see that my work is moving the needle on key company metrics in a matter of weeks. When I say "key," I mean it: I am not talking about secondary KPIs that no one pays attention to, but business-critical metrics that the CEO and the rest of the C-suite look at on a daily basis (think sales, retention, pricing, etc)."

"The benefit of being a digital-first company is that we are sitting on a treasure trove of data. This means we almost never have to make a decision that's not backed by a robust, statistically significant analysis. While data science can be a support function in some other places (this was something I wanted to avoid), data scientists at Jerry are at the core of the business."

"I have also appreciated the professional growth opportunities. I have had flexibility to work on the skills I wanted to develop, be it technical or soft skills. I have found continuous learning to be one of my most important drivers of happiness at work. Getting the space and latitude to work on projects that I am most interested in was all the more important for this reason."
