Safety Specialist

As the leading end-to-end investment platform for single-family rental homes (SFR), our mission is to reinvent the rental housing ecosystem for the benefit of all. We successfully merge our passion for helping investors build wealth through real estate with cutting edge technology that transforms the way they do it.

With a talented team of 750+ Roofsters, our collaborative, can-do culture is what fuels our growth. In 2022, we closed on our Series E, raising $240 million, and have offices in the Bay Area and New York City. Our growth includes recent acquisitions of Stessa (financial and asset management software), RentPrep (tenant screening and placement service for landlords), and Mynd (property management platform for both Retail and Institutional investors). In 2025, Roofstock took an ownership stake in Casago (short-term rental management services), expanding our platform to support both long-term and short-term rental investment services.

As Roofstock continues to scale its national footprint, we are seeking a Safety Specialist to serve as the chief architect of our physical safety culture and a key partner in supporting our fleet operations.

This is a safety-first role. You will develop, implement, and oversee a comprehensive workplace safety program for the organization, covering everything from OSHA compliance and incident investigation to field safety training and risk assessment. You will also contribute to fleet operations alongside Scott Lawrence and the Field Operations team, supporting vehicle compliance, driver safety, and vendor coordination. Your goal is to build a proactive, "Safety First" culture that protects every employee, whether they are in a vehicle, at a property, or in a warehouse, while contributing to efficient fleet stewardship.

• Safety Strategy & Policy: Develop, implement, and maintain company-wide safety policies, procedures, and programs (including the IIPP) to ensure a safe workplace for all employees.
• Risk Assessment: Conduct regular safety audits, property site inspections, and risk assessments to identify and mitigate environmental and physical hazards across all operating markets.
• Incident Investigation: Lead the response for all accidents, near-misses, and workplace injuries. Perform root-cause analysis and recommend corrective actions to prevent recurrence.
• Training & Education: Design and deliver safety training modules covering PPE usage, ladder safety, chemical handling, emergency preparedness, defensive driving, and topics surfaced by incident trends or regulatory changes.
• Compliance: Ensure the organization adheres to federal, state, and local regulations (OSHA General Industry, DOT, state-specific requirements) and maintain all required safety documentation and reporting (OSHA 300 logs, incident reports, training records).
• Workers' Compensation: Partner with People Operations and Insurance on claims processing, return-to-work programs, and claim frequency reduction through prevention-focused strategies.

• Driver Safety & Coaching: Use telematics data (Geotab) to monitor driver behavior, support coaching conversations, and maintain driver safety scorecards in partnership with Field Operations.
• Compliance & Documentation: Support vehicle registration, emissions, and insurance compliance across all operating states. Help maintain centralized fleet records.
• Vendor Coordination: Serve as a point of contact for fleet vendors (WEX, Geotab, E-Fleet, leasing companies) alongside Field Operations leadership.
• Maintenance Support: Assist with preventative maintenance scheduling, invoice review, and repair coordination to minimize vehicle downtime.
• Data & Reporting: Contribute to monthly fleet and safety scorecards for leadership, covering safety stats, driver behavior trends, vehicle utilization, and maintenance costs.

• 5+ years of experience in Occupational Safety/Health (EHS), workplace safety, or a closely related discipline.
• Deep working knowledge of OSHA General Industry standards and multi-state regulatory compliance.
• OSHA-30 certification (or equivalent/superior credential such as CSP or CDS, with willingness to obtain OSHA-30 within 90 days if not held).
• Proven experience building safety programs, writing SOPs, and conducting workplace hazard assessments.
• Strong proficiency in Google Sheets/Excel for data analysis and reporting.
• Proven ability to influence behavior and drive cultural change across all levels of an organization.

• CSP (Certified Safety Professional) certification.
• Experience in a field-service, property-services, or property management environment.
• Familiarity with fleet operations, telematics platforms (Geotab), or fuel management systems (WEX).
• Experience with DOT regulations and driver qualification file management.
• Bachelor's degree in Occupational Safety, Environmental Health, or a related field.
