About Kinetic
The Kinetic team is on a mission to create a safer workplace and better life for the industrial workforce around the world. Kinetic has a patented wearable device, called Reflex, which sits on the wearer’s hip and alerts them when they perform a high-risk motion which could lead to an injury. Our wearable technology has been proven to reduce injuries by 55%, and has been deployed to tens of thousands of industrial workers at some of the leading Fortune 500 firms, including Pepsi, DHL and Home Depot. Starting in 2022 Kinetic partnered with Nationwide to sell Workers Compensation insurance, where policyholders get our technology for free as part of their insurance policy.
Kinetic is based in New York city, but has workers based remotely in many geographic locations. At this stage, Kinetic has approximately 50 employees across groups ranging from software development to enterprise customer success to business development for insurance. Kinetic is starting to grow quickly due to the rapid growth in both its insurance product offering and enterprise sales, with 10x growth in just 2 years.

The Kinetic team is on a mission to create a safer workplace and better life for the frontline workforce around the world. We are re-defining workers comp by focusing on three main pillars: injury prediction, prevention, and management. Kinetic develops technology-driven solutions in each of these areas to create best-in-class outcomes for our policyholders. Kinetic’s first product is a smart wearable device that monitors kinematic motion of an employee, and helps provide coaching on high-risk ergonomic motions such as bending, twisting, and jumping. It has proven to be incredibly effective at reducing frequency and severity of strain and sprain injuries by over 55%. Since then, we have expanded into developing tools such as a rapid-return-to-work process, computer vision for safety in the workplace, and generative AI for claims management. This is an exciting opportunity to work at a company fusing technology with industry leading services to create happier, healthier employees.
