Builds and deploys AI/ML systems (Chariot platform) to monitor model performance, manage drift, and ensure real-world reliability for government clients, working with data (structured/unstructured) and hybrid/on-site at Fort Belvoir.
“In 36 months, agentic AI systems will be an operating reality across major institutions. We intend to be central to it.” — Dr. Jim Rebesco, Cofounder and CEO, Striveworks
The government’s demand for AI is growing far faster than the systems required to support it. Fewer than 15% of federal AI programs have reached sustained production, despite billions of dollars invested. The models perform in testing, but they degrade in the real world. And when performance drops, trust goes with it.
Striveworks was built to solve that problem.
Since 2018, we have delivered the most trusted AI systems operating in real-world use cases—providing a layer of assurance underneath hundreds of deployed models that monitors performance, manages drift, and sustains systems long after they leave the lab.
As a Machine Learning Engineer, you will be a core contributor to both customer-driven projects and the enduring products of the company. Working alongside data scientists, software engineers, and DevOps engineers, you’ll develop machine learning models, custom analytics, and mission-critical solutions applied to image, video, text, geospatial, time series, structured, and other data. You will orchestrate complex data engineering pipelines in agentic and traditional architectures. Your work will inform the future of Chariot, our proprietary AI operations platform, and your impact will be felt on mission-critical deployments and through direct customer contact.
We lead with trust, treat each other with respect, and use candor consistently, kindly, and constructively. We care deeply about our work, and we find genuine satisfaction in doing it well. Above all, we take ownership—because we feel the weight of collective results personally. We are looking for people who share these values and are eager to put them into practice.
The following isn’t required, but we’d love to see it:
You will be hybrid/on site at customer locations at Fort Belvoir in Fairfax County, VA. You will be expected to travel up to 15% of the time.
The anticipated base pay range for this position is $140,000–$190,000/year. Striveworks’ total compensation package includes a competitive base salary, equity grants, and cash bonuses.
