Senior Product Manager–Edge AI Management

Striveworks • Austin, TX

22h • Hybrid

About The Position

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 Senior Product Manager–Edge AI Management at Striveworks, you will work closely with our software engineering, data science, and sales teams to define the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for our edge AI management capabilities. You will help shape how models, data, and configuration are deployed, managed, and orchestrated across distributed edge environments while ensuring that our platform meets the evolving needs of our customers. We are looking for Product Managers who enjoy building highly complex software products and operationalizing cutting-edge AI technologies to deliver enterprise value.
