Trellis • Remote
Trellis is a profitable, fast-growing Series A startup backed by General Catalyst, QED, NYCA, and Amex Ventures. We’re reimagining how people shop for home and auto insurance, using smart technology to make something historically painful feel refreshingly easy.
Every day, we help people save time, money, and unnecessary headaches. Behind the scenes, our fully remote team moves fast, owns their craft, and builds products that genuinely make life better.
Led by a three-time fintech founder with a proven track record of going big, we’re building something special, and we’re just getting started.
If you’re hungry to make an impact and love solving complex problems with a scrappy crew, you’ll love it here.
At Trellis, we’re not your typical agency, we’re reimagining how insurance is bought and sold with a platform built on innovation, data, and automation. As a Personal Lines Insurance Sales Agent, you’ll play a key role on a high-performing team, helping customers across the country find personalized coverage through a wide network of over 80 insurance carriers.
This isn’t just a sales role, it’s your opportunity to thrive in a fast-moving, fully remote environment where cutting-edge technology meets real human impact. We celebrate performance, reward initiative, and create clear pathways for growth.
This is a remote position open to candidates in most U.S. states (with the exception of California and New York).
We believe in paying competitively for great work. As a remote team, we set our salaries at the 75th percentile of national market data in our industry. You can count on your pay being in line with (or above) the market. For this role, agents start at a $40,000 base salary, with an On Target commission variable of $30,000 (uncapped). We review compensation twice a year to make sure we’re staying competitive and rewarding our team’s contributions.
The formula is simple: more sales = more income.
Base salary plus generous commissions for every sale above your monthly floor
Exciting bonuses including contests, high-premium incentives, and elite sales clubs
Top performers consistently earn $100K+ - some break $160K
Our agency operates 7 days a week, from 9 AM to 9 PM ET. To best serve our customers, team members work one weekend day per week and enjoy two days off to rest and recharge. We’ll work together during the interview process to find a schedule that aligns with your needs and our customers’ experience.
We are an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
Note: all employees must complete a background check prior to starting employment with Trellis or its subsidiaries.
Why Trellis? Because life’s too short for boring jobs.
We’re a team of builders, dreamers, and doers reshaping an industry that touches every household in America. At Trellis, you’ll have real ownership, meaningful impact, and the chance to grow alongside a company that’s scaling fast.
