Location: Minneapolis, MN

  

Employment Type: Full Time

  

Team: Underwriting

  

Hi, we’re Gravie, and we are building the health plan of the future. For the
past few decades, the health insurance industry has evolved to serve the needs
of employers, insurance companies, brokers, and (sometimes) doctors and
hospitals. The needs of the consumer, however, have largely been left out of
the equation. We’re changing that. We are rebuilding the entire health
insurance stack, with the consumer as the central focus. Our goal is to create
a health plan that people can love.  

  

 **A Little More About Us:**

·       We know healthcare. Our company was founded and is still led by
industry veterans who have started and grown several market-leading companies
in the space.

·       We are quickly becoming one of the fastest growing health benefits
companies in the country. We have received numerous awards and accolades,
including Inc. Magazine Best in Business Gold Medal award in 2021, and JMP
Securities Top 50 Private Companies in Insurtech in 2022.

·       We have raised money from top tier investors who share the same long-
term vision as we do of building an industry defining company that will endure
over the long run. We are well capitalized.

·       Our customers like us. Our revenue churn is in the low single digits,
in an industry where greater than 20% churn is common.

·       Our culture is unique. We tend to be non-hierarchical, merit-driven,
opinionated but kind people who thrive working in a high-performance, fast-
paced environment. People at Gravie care deeply about making a positive impact
in the lives of the people we serve. We may not be the right place for
everybody, but if you get energized by doing work every day that focuses on
putting consumers at the front of the line, we could be a great place for you.
It takes unique people and diverse perspectives to deliver our results. We
encourage you to be your authentic self – we like you that way.
