Position Summary & Responsibilities

“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.

What you’ll build

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 Junior Front-End Engineer, you’ll play an active role in designing and implementing UI/UX components for our core products. You’ll work closely with a team of UX designers, data scientists, and software engineers to solve complex problems—making this an ideal environment to accelerate your technical growth while delivering high-impact solutions for our users.

What it’s like here

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.

What we’re looking for

  • A bachelor’s degree in computer science or another engineering or science discipline, or completion of a software development boot camp and 0–2 years of relevant professional experience
  • Strong proficiency in TypeScript and modern JavaScript, with a solid understanding of language fundamentals, asynchronous programming, and modern front-end development practices
  • Familiarity with UI/UX, knowledge of design patterns, and experience designing and styling applications with CSS
  • Experience building web applications with React through professional, academic, or personal projects
  • Experience working with REST APIs and integrating back-end services into front-end applications
  • Experience with Git
