About the Company

SafetyWing was founded to support nomads like ourselves by building an adaptable software-based global social safety net. Our products are created by a fully remote team distributed across the globe and stretching ten timezones while headquartered in San Francisco. We’re here to remove the role of geographical borders as a barrier to equal opportunities and freedom for everyone.

Tech Stack

On the frontend we use react with redux. Our backend is built with java, hosted on google cloud.

Sarah Sandnes

Norwegian based in NYC, with comp sci, math and startup background. Consider myself a pretty optimistic rationalist. I'm into reading, cooking, nutrition, health, exercise, nootropics, longevity, and creating a world with more equal opportunities - made a lot more possible thanks to the Internet and remote work. I'm also a singer-songwriter.
