Why Berkley

We are a small group of technologists with a passion for making insurance better. Today we are working with a team of industry experts who run different insurance brands and collectively control billions in annual premiums.

We believe in an idea and execution meritocracy. In other words, a place where the best ideas win and the people who deliver the most value get the most opportunities.

As we grow our team, we are looking for inquisitive, entrepreneurial people who are excited to reimagine the insurance industry.

Insurance is too complex. Help us make it better.

What we’re looking for

As a Product Management Analyst, you will work with one of our Product Managers learning how to build successful software products that customers love. We are going to give you a lot of instruction and feedback in your first year in order to help you become highly effective in your role. We believe that people can only be effective when they have clarity, and we will strive to always give you clarity. We are looking for someone who will be dedicated to learning, taking action on feedback, and building great relationships with colleagues.

Beyond that, we’re looking for someone with a high degree of ownership, who values completing work and admits failures; someone who always seeks to understand the Why for things and never accepts an incomplete understanding; someone who is biased toward validating opinions with data and maintains a healthy skepticism about the subjective; and someone who is not afraid of technology and always learning new skills.
