Stride is an embedded hiring partner for NYC startup founders as they're building their early teams across engineering, product, and go-to-market.

When a founder is ready to hire, we go deep on what they’re building, where the company is today, how the team operates, and what success actually looks like in the role. We help clarify what they need, pressure-test the search, and make sure the hiring process is built around the right criteria.

From there, we identify candidates from our network and evaluate them against the specific needs of that company, not just their resume or job titles. We spend time understanding how they think, how they solve problems, what motivates them, and the environments where they’ve done their best work.

The result is a higher-context hiring process that saves time for both sides.

If you're hiring your early team or exploring the market for your next role, we'd love to hear from you!
