About Stride’s Growth Engine

We’re building a new kind of company from the inside out. Everything we do is grounded in our five core values: Humility, Honesty, Respect, Learning from Failure, and Willingness to help others. We evaluate all of our relationships based on them. This goes for employees, clients, and vendors. We believe that happiness is the highest level of success and we want every person that crosses paths with us to achieve it.

If you enjoy problem solving, learning, optimizing processes, and care more about getting it done right than getting the credit once the dust has settled, then you’ll fit right in. Stride offers a challenging high-growth environment that prioritizes diversity and inclusion.

About the Role

We are looking for a Senior Technical Recruiter. We hire “the cream of the cream of the crop” when it comes to software engineering. To reach that very top layer, we need the most exceptional Talent team New York has ever seen.

If you think you're up for the challenge, then here's a breakdown so you know what you're getting yourself into:

Finding Talent

This will probably be the most familiar thing to you about this job. Finding talent. This challenge will present itself in a handful of ways, but just know that we prioritize quality over quantity. One of your core tasks at Stride will be finding the best applicants and ensure that the reasons they applied are founded and real. We’ll work together to identify creative ways to find talent, from employer branding to sourcing to networking and more.

Trust

Trust is an integral part of your job and building that trust with anyone you come into contact with is implicit with genuinely succeeding here. We need everyone who works here to know that every future Strider that walks in on their first day is at or above the expectations of everyone around because they came through our talent team first.

That also means every future Strider who meets you knows they’re in good hands from the very first contact they have with you. Candidate experience is our top priority, and you are  the face of that experience.
