Our platform automates complex insurance workflows with over 98% accuracy, enabling carriers and brokers to achieve results in weeks instead of months.

- - Collaborate cross-functional with marketing and process engineering teams to tailor solutions and materials.
- - Represent Roots at industry events and trade shows, serving as a brand ambassador.
- **Position Requirements**
- - 5+ years of B2B SaaS or enterprise technology sales experience (required).
- - Proven track record of closing deals with C-suite executives and managing 6-month or shorter sales cycles.
- - Strong consultative and strategic selling skills, you’re naturally curious and thrive on understanding business problems.
