About the role
- As a Senior Software Engineer at Striveworks, you'll be challenged-and trusted-on day one to be a core contributor to the products and direction of the company.

Responsibilities
- Build, Deploy, and Maintain AI for an Unpredictable World
- 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.
- You're right for this challenge if you value and possess technical expertise and you push the boundaries of your own capabilities.
- Experience in the design and development of performant, scalable services
- Ability to work cross-functionally and participate in or lead design discussions
- Ability to independently lead the software development life cycle, from collaborating with product teams on requirements to executing technical design, implementation, and deployment
Requirements
- 6-8 years of hands-on development experience
- Proficiency in Python
- Experience with DevOps tooling: CI/CD tools, Git, Docker, Kubernetes

- You are outcome driven, not requirements driven.
- Strong understanding of software development principles, such as object-oriented programming, design patterns, documentation, and agile methodologies
- Bachelor's degree in computer science or a related field, or similar experience
- Due to the nature of this role, candidates must have US citizenship
- Experience with workflow automation
Skills
- Everything as Code
- Cloud-neutral development
- User-centric design
