Do the best work of your life at Stedi
At Stedi, we’re rebuilding the technological backbone of the B2B economy. Trillions of dollars flow annually through a global network of commerce via an archaic protocol called Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), but there hasn’t been a major new EDI platform in decades.
Stedi's latest product is the world’s only API-first clearinghouse. By offering a modern API interface, we enable healthcare technology businesses to exchange transactions without dealing with the EDI protocol or carrier-specific connectivity.
Goal
Stedi’s goal is to automate every B2B transaction on the planet; we drive towards this goal by providing a flexible platform for building end-to-end EDI systems and modern, API-first solutions across transportation, logistics, healthcare, and more.
A prerequisite is maintaining minimum operating costs without endangering the company’s future development. This requires a relentless drive towards simplicity and an uncompromising thoroughness in identifying and implementing daily improvements. Come and join us on this journey.
Stedi has raised $71 million in funding and is backed by top investors.

Standards
Ownership
Constantly deliver business value
Focus on solving problems, big and small, for our business every day. Your daily contributions are critical to our success in delighting customers and excelling in our market.
Be customer obsessed
Our customers expect us to be experts and look to us for guidance and best practices. Go deep when understanding customer use-cases and strive to help them solve their most meaningful business challenges. Gain as much experience with customer problems as possible, and leverage this experience to impact your product.
Create and execute your own work
Find the highest impact work that needs to be done for the company, and do it. Pull on a valuable thread and see it through to completion. Odds are you will uncover other threads as you work. If you don’t know where to start, ask.
Everything is important
Make everything you do high-quality and simple. Cut scope until a high bar with meaningful impact is quickly achievable, and then relentlessly raise the bar and expand scope as necessary to achieve business goals.
Be present
Your presence impacts every aspect of our business. Showing up is not enough; like a sports team, the outcomes are greater when it’s a tight-knit group with no one on the periphery.
Be negative maintenance
The opposite of high maintenance isn’t low maintenance – it’s negative maintenance: being poised under pressure, self-motivating, self-improving, self-disciplined, self-aware, and non-defensive.
Be curious
Dive deep and become a master of your craft. Cultivate a relentless thirst for learning through reading, listening, watching, sharing, and teaching – from sources new and old – with interminable curiosity and patience.
Operational obsession
Eliminate toil wherever you find it
Prioritize eliminating menial work and spend your time on high-value deliverables. Waste is our existential risk; it leads to uncompetitiveness, frustration, disengagement, and joylessness. Live by a process of continuous improvement where waste is eliminated any time and place it’s found. If it hurts, do it more often – and then solve the underlying problem.
Apply the minimum effective dose
Be a master of implementing what is common sense, reasonable, and minimally necessary – without choosing a shortcut simply because it’s easier. Practice fanatical simplicity and a focus on fundamentals – these lead to extremely high quality and extremely low costs that are impossible to match.

Write important things down
When you make decisions and have arrived at a solution, document it and share it so that others don’t revisit ideas unnecessarily. There is discipline in writing. The writing process clarifies the problems we are solving, solutions, decisions, and iterations.
