Senior DevOps Engineer; Active Secret Clearance

Schofield Barracks, Hawaii, United States

Striveworks helps organizations harness the power of artificial intelligence to solve real‑world national security and business challenges by serving as the command center between data, models, and business outcomes. Founded by data scientists and engineers, Striveworks set out to make the journey from deployment to ongoing optimization simple and effective.

With Striveworks, organizations aren’t just deploying AI—they’re building systems that remain reliable, adaptable, and ready to scale in an unpredictable world. Mission‑critical operations require models that perform where they’re deployed, scale as workloads grow, and adapt rapidly as AI capabilities advance. Striveworks meets these demands, increasing reliability and performance while lowering costs—and enabling confident, data‑driven decision‑making in dynamic environments.

As a Senior Dev Ops Engineer at Striveworks, you will be challenged—and trusted—on day one to take ownership of specific product deployments by maintaining, optimizing, and enhancing our on‑premises and cloud computing environments. You will play a crucial role in the successful deployment of our software solutions to clients. You will be responsible for executing technical aspects of implementation projects and for ensuring the seamless integration, customization, and configuration of our software.

You will be responsible for maintaining Striveworks’ software deployments using Infrastructure‑as‑Code (IaC) methodologies. Your expertise will play a critical role for the company as we deploy new instances of Striveworks’ AI operations (AIOps) capabilities to customer infrastructure.

You are right for this opportunity if you value and possess technical expertise and enjoy pushing the boundaries of your capabilities.

• Automating IaC to manage virtual machines and deploy containers, services, and other infrastructure; applying your expertise to deploy custom Kubernetes clusters in AWS, Azure, GCP, on‑premises, or hybrid cloud environments
• Working with platform developers, other Dev Ops teammates, and customer‑facing teams to define requirements and build solutions for customer use cases of the platform
• Software deployments to commercial and, later, unclassified, CUI, and classified Department of Defense (DoD) networks
• Incident response and initial triage of critical system faults

The Senior Dev Ops Engineer works on the Dev Ops team. You will be responsible for monitoring, automating, and improving software reliability, performance, and availability for various projects. You will also act as a liaison between platform developers and customer‑facing teams, taking on operational tasks to ensure the efficient functioning of Striveworks’ solutions. You will work alongside a team of software engineers and data scientists to help them deploy and operate their work as functional products, learning from them so that building effective AI solutions becomes second nature.

You might provide guidance and leadership to junior Dev Ops team members.

You will directly contribute to the success of mission‑critical systems within national security and commercial clients. You will be expected to wear multiple hats and to step into vacuums where improvements are needed, and you will be given the breadth to explore new technologies and solutions.

This position offers a hybrid/on‑site work environment at customer sites at Schofield Barracks in O'ahu, Hawai'i. You will be expected to travel up to 30% of the time, including some international travel.
