About The Position
Arlo is rebuilding health insurance for small businesses from first principles, aiming to maximize the portion of premium dollars that go towards actual care. They achieve this by identifying fraud, guiding members to better and more affordable care options, automating operational tasks, and eliminating unnecessary vendors. Artificial intelligence is central to their strategy, being used across underwriting, operations, clinical programs, and member experience to create an increasingly efficient insurance model. The company has achieved significant scale, is profitable, handles hundreds of millions in premiums, covers tens of thousands of members, and is experiencing rapid growth. They are backed by prominent venture capital firms and have a team composed of individuals from top tech companies and experienced healthcare professionals.
