Born from Volunteer Effort

Recidiviz was an all-volunteer effort until 2019, when it was founded by Clementine, Andrew, and Joshua. Since then, it has built an A-team of software engineers, designers, product managers, and domain experts, from companies like Google, Apple, Dropbox, Opower, and Sidewalk Labs. Recidiviz was part of Y-Combinator’s 2019 class and has received support from some of the most respected philanthropists and foundations.

Making a Real Impact

Today, Recidiviz works with 11 state partners and covers 25% of the US incarcerated population. They've helped to get tens of thousands of people out of the criminal justice system, safely and equitably, and saved states nearly $1 billion. In the next five years, Recidiviz plans to partner with 40 states and help 250,000 people who are stuck in the system to get out and stay out.

Diversity is their Strength

Recidiviz believes that lasting change is always built on diversity. They recruit, employ, train, compensate and promote regardless of race, religion, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, disability, age, veteran status, ancestry, citizenship, marital status, gender identity and all protected status as required by applicable law. They consider qualified applicants regardless of criminal histories, consistent with legal requirements.

So, if you're looking to join a company that's making a real difference in the world, look no further than Recidiviz. They're not just a company, they're a movement. And they'd love for you to be a part of it.
