Stride

At Stride we’re working on a benefits suite for what we believe is an underserved community – freelance and gig economy workers. We want to create economic security for anyone who works for themselves. We offer an easy way for 1099 workers to apply for health/dental/vision coverage. We’re also expanding to other spaces like tax, so as to make it financially accessible for anybody who juggles multiple gigs, or is just pursuing a dream on their own. As a business, we sit on a unique position and have partnerships with a ton of giant companies who want to better serve their workforce. It’s rare that a startup has a good mission and a good business, but here we are. On the engineering side, we use Node, Python, Swift, Postgres, Akka and some cool machine learning models you’re going to love hearing about. More particularly on Android, we’re moving towards Kotlin at a fast pace (40% of our codebase is Kotlin already, all new code is Kotlin) and we use a state-of-the-art MVI architecture that’s great to work on. Your work will be feature-heavy, and you’ll have tons of say on its architecture and infrastructure. We have a beautiful office in SOMA (San Francisco) close to South Park. We offer fantastic benefits (after all, it’s our product!) and you’ll be surrounded by the most driven, smartest people I know. We have a supportive, productive culture that’s respectful of your own personal time and well-being.
