The Workgrid Assistant

This award-winning TechStart project produced a chatbot designed to help employees get faster answers to commonly asked questions. The platform enables enterprises to deliver personalized and contextual information with a modern, unified experience, and eliminates the productivity burden of employees having to login to multiple applications to find information and manage tasks.

Internal Starter App

For this project, the TechStart team built three new applications for Liberty Mutual CI Developers. The first was a UI reference code library for Bootstrap 4 that shows users how to combine common components and colors for Liberty Mutual web development. The second was written in Spring Boot and allows the team to do more coding with less confusion. The third was written in Angular JS designed to teach others the specifics of Angular at Liberty.

DOORS Operational Reporting Migration

Here, the TechStart team was tasked with moving Liberty’s DevOps Operational Reporting System (DOORS) to React JS. First, they created a filterable and exportable artifact mapping grid. Next, they sourced information using Talend, and created Node services to optimize data loading speeds. DOORS now allows the team to report on project progress and helps us better understand the cost of cloud-computing throughout the organization.

Testimonials

During my first year and a half at Liberty, I’ve grown as a developer, a team member, and a leader. I helped create an application that reduced a 30+ minute quoting time to under 2 minutes using over 10 internal and external data feeds. I have done full stack web development using Spring and Angular, and one project involved machine learning and image recognition.

Daniel I.

Right from the start, I had the opportunity to meet senior leaders. I participated in many development boot camps and attended internal conferences to learn more about Liberty’s investment in new technology including blockchain, machine learning, and AWS services. When it came time to move on from my TechStart team to my individual assignment, I felt prepared. TechStart gave me the foundation and confidence I needed to jumpstart my career.

Samantha B.

In my time at Liberty Mutual I have had a diverse experience ranging from mainframe automation to cloud native serverless technologies. Liberty has provided me with an environment where I can continue to develop the skills I’m passionate about while exploring new skills and technologies outside my comfort zone—all of which come with realistic expectations and a perfect work-life balance.
