A Bit About Us

Streem was acquired by Frontdoor (FTDR) in December 2019. Co-Founders Ryan Fink (CEO) and Sean Adkinson (CTO) began building the business in 2017 and continue to create game-changing technologies, lead the industry narrative and foster a workplace where people are happy to go to work every day.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion: Streem prioritizes building a work environment and culture that works well for employees of every race, gender, sexual orientation, size, disability, and background.

No silos, no egos: Streem values ideas, interdisciplinary collaboration, and an open exchange of constructive feedback. To make this safe for everyone, we foster a culture of trust and respect rather than competition between employees. If you’ve got skills or interests outside what we mentioned in our listing, we want to know about them!

Week-long 10% time: Once a quarter, our entire team sets aside the strategic roadmap and spends a week on whatever we think is important. Doing this together encourages big ideas and cross-department team-ups, and it’s a lot of fun.

Enjoy your work life; keep your home life: Since the emergence of Covid-19, Streem has transitioned to a fully remote work environment. We provide monitors and other basics to make your WFH life easier. We keep our Streem culture healthy during these challenging times with various virtual gatherings like Friday demo days and optional team activities, including virtual happy hours and book club. We also value personal time and understand the complexities of working from home. Our co-founders both have young children and lead by example by avoiding crunch time and exercising our flexible PTO policy.
