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

I first began working at Liberty Mutual as a Commercial Underwriting Intern. I was taught the basics of underwriting, in addition to other areas critical to the success of our organization. I was really intrigued by the vastness of the different departments, their corresponding functions, and how each worked together to support our overall mission. Being a part of a Fortune 100 company really opens the doors to a career that allows you to move in any corporate direction you prefer.

I knew Liberty Mutual was the right choice for me due to its values regarding diversity, continuing education, and giving back to the community. After graduating, I completed the Underwriting Training Program where I developed my analytical and interpersonal skills. Now I am growing within my position, and I feel very proud to work for a company that focuses so heavily on personal development.
