Vannevar is a defense technology company building AI to deter our adversaries. In the 21st century, conflict moves at algorithmic speed and foresight equals firepower. Our agentic AI is purpose-built to compete with China—from cross-Strait conflict to gray zone coercion. Trained on the most mission-relevant datasets in defense, our technology models adversary behavior, simulates campaigns, and recommends the best course of action to decision makers. Our AI systems are some of the most trusted in the industry and actively used on the front lines of the Indo-Pacific to keep the peace and save lives.
Exceptional technology starts with exceptional people. Vannevar is a small agile team combining world-class engineers with veteran strategists who bring deep expertise in defense and tradecraft. We’re building a company defined by mission impact, user empathy, and disciplined growth. In just three years, we grew from $3M to $80M in ARR, achieved early profitability, and reached unicorn status—proving that disruption doesn’t require an ego, and staying power doesn’t mean standing still.
About the role
Mission Leads are customer-facing owners of mission outcomes. You will lead engagements with government stakeholders to identify high-value mission problems, shape pilots and deployments, and turn demonstrated mission value into durable, funded programs.
This role blends mission credibility with strong execution and technical intuition. You will operate with high autonomy in ambiguous environments, translate mission needs into clear technical narratives, and coordinate across functional teams (Product, Engineering, Mission, Security, and Operations) to deliver and scale.
U.S. Persons status with at least a current Top Secret US DoD or IC clearance is required. This is a customer-facing role required to be based in Oahu. Work will likely require time in secure or classified environments and periodic travel.
What you’ll do
- Lead mission engagements. Build trusted relationships with operational, technical, and leadership stakeholders to understand mission needs, constraints, and success criteria.
- Translate mission problems into plans. Turn mission needs into clear problem statements, requirements, milestones, and measurable outcomes.
- Shape pilots and pathways to scale. Define objectives, timelines, and adoption plans that convert early wins into sustained programs.
- Communicate the “why” and the “how.” Create crisp technical narratives that map our agent-based capabilities to mission requirements and operational constraints.
- Run the operating cadence. Lead weekly customer syncs, internal standups, executive updates/QBRs, action-item tracking, and risk reviews, as applicable.
- Coordinate cross-functional delivery. Partner closely with Product and Engineering to ensure mission context is reflected in scope, tradeoffs, and delivery plans.
- Navigate program realities. Help stakeholders work through requirements development, budgeting cycles, contracting pathways, and coordination across organizations.
- Enable adoption. Coordinate onboarding, training, and customer success so the customer can use and sustain the capability.
- Maintain durable account knowledge. Keep high-signal documentation in Notion: stakeholders, org charts, use cases, timelines, deliverables, decisions, and lessons learned.
- Support expansion. Identify adjacent use cases and partner with Account teams where applicable.
What we’re looking for
- 6+ years owning outcomes in complex customer environments (defense, intelligence, public sector, or similarly regulated domains)
- Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functionally without consistent guidance
- Strong written and verbal communication; able to synthesize ambiguity into clear plans and execution
- Ability to scope and articulate a solution credibly: connect mission problems to software capabilities and measurable outcomes
- Sufficient technical fluency to partner effectively with Product and Engineering and translate complex concepts into mission-relevant narratives
- Strong operational skills: planning, prioritization, stakeholder management, and follow-through
What we value
- Experience with deployments or fielding in secure/regulated environments (e.g., ATO/IL environments, classified workflows, compliance constraints)
- Experience navigating within programs (requirements, budgets, authorities, timelines, contracting pathways)
- Deep expertise in a specific mission or technical domain (e.g., cyber, information warfare, ISR, networks, operations, warfare systems/command and control)
- Experience running executive-level customer updates (QBRs, steering committees)
What we offer
The salary range for this position is $150,000 - $170,000 + equity. Within the range, individual pay is determined by experience, relevant education, and/or training.
- Health, dental, and vision insurance
- Remote friendly with WeWork access
- Unlimited PTO, shared downtime during the federal holiday calendar, and company-wide off time at the end of each year
- 401(k) match
- Lifestyle & wellbeing stipends
- Salary top-up during military reserve duty
- Fully paid parental leave
- Child and pet care reimbursement during travel
We are committed to protecting the privacy of all applicants. Official emails from the company will come from an @vannevarlabs.com domain. Under no circumstances will a legitimate representative from our company contact you to request passwords, financial information, or other sensitive personal data. Please be vigilant of potential scams.

Field Program Manager (Active Secret Clearance)
Share this job
Build, Deploy, and Maintain AI for an Unpredictable World
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.
The Role
The Field Program Manager (FPM) is a hands-on leader aligned to a US Army Division HQ who serves as Striveworks’ primary program leadership presence for the Next Generation Command and Control (NGC2) program. This is an “ownership” role, not a coordination role; you are the primary authority for delivery, customer relationships, and growth. The FPM collaborates across a small, cross-functional project team to drive execution against the program roadmap and is the person Striveworks leadership calls when something is at risk. This position is designed for someone who has experience in complex Army environments, who understands how Division-level decisions are actually made, and who is done watching technology fail to land because nobody owned the last mile.
At Striveworks, you are trusted to operate autonomously, step into vacuums, and advocate for the end user with technical specificity. Success is measured by presence and follow-through rather than slide decks. You will serve as the company’s voice in the room, translating customer friction points into actionable technical roadmaps while maintaining a persistent pulse on how capabilities are utilized in the field. We value proactive problem-solvers who can mitigate execution risks independently and ensure that mission-critical systems land effectively within the formation.
Day-to-day responsibilities:
- Own the relationship: Serve as the primary point of contact for all stakeholders, from end users to Division leadership, to build trust and ensure long-term retention
- Drive growth: Identify expansion opportunities within the formation and surface competitive threats or “win signals” to leadership with enough lead time to act
- Define success: Diagnose operational problems before the customer names them, ensuring that Striveworks’ capabilities are providing measurable value
- Bridge the technical gap: Translate field needs into specific, actionable inputs for the engineering team to ensure that product development matches mission reality
- Execute the roadmap: Synchronize technical delivery with contractual milestones, the customer’s operational calendar, and exercise cycles to ensure on-time execution
- Mitigate risk: Identify delivery obstacles early, and autonomously resolve execution issues—escalating them to leadership only with recommended courses of action, not problems
This position offers a fully remote work environment, or you can work hybrid/on site at our office in northwest Austin, TX. You will be expected to travel up to 25% of the time to our customer sites at Schofield Army Barracks in Oߵahu, Hawaiߵi.
The Right Fit
In addition to the specific skills and expertise detailed below, we are looking for individuals who share our values. Sharing a set of values allows us to move at the speed of trust.
Collectively, we value a high-trust work environment where people respect each other and use candor kindly and constructively. We value work that intersects passion and perseverance, we geek out about the potential of our contributions, and we find joy in working hard on things that matter. Finally, we value taking ownership, having agency, and feeling individual responsibility for collective results.
Here’s what we’re looking for:
- Bachelor’s degree and 4–6+ years of experience with military operations at Division (2-star) level or higher
- Demonstrated experience planning and directing the execution of complex, multi-stakeholder project activities; proven team leadership in high-accountability environments
- Track record of building and sustaining rapport and trust with senior military and civilian stakeholders across different organizational levels
- Strong written and verbal communication; able to operate credibly across Soldier-level and executive-level audiences in the same day
- Technical fluency to engage software engineers and data scientists as an informed, non-technical counterpart; the ability to translate customer needs to contractual requirements
- Active Secret (or above) US security clearance
- Due to the nature of this role, candidates must have US citizenship
The Wish List
We’re very interested in candidates who possess the above qualifications, and we appreciate and consider the addition of:
- Former Field Grade Officer or Senior NCO, or similar
- Direct experience implementing or integrating battlefield technology within Army formations; you’ve seen a capability succeed or fail at the unit level, and you know why it happened
- Familiarity with DOD IT, network, and communications infrastructure as an operational reality, not just a technical concept
- Working knowledge of agile software delivery practices; able to hold a technical team accountable to a cadence without micromanaging the engineering
- Meaningful exposure to machine learning/AI capabilities in operational or defense contexts—enough to recognize value, identify misuse, and advocate credibly for the customer
- Aptitude with customer success or account management functions within a defense technology vendor
The anticipated base pay range for this position is $145,000–$185,000/year. For candidates located in Hawaiߵi, the anticipated base pay range for this position is $175,000–$220,000/year. Striveworks’ total compensation package includes a competitive base salary, equity grants, and cash bonuses.
The Benefits
- Medical/dental/vision insurance
- Voluntary life, long-term disability, accident, and hospital indemnity insurance
- HSA and FSA (including dependent care FSA) plans
- 401(k) plan
- Unlimited PTO
- Paid parental leave

Embedded Operations Manager (Active Secret Clearance)
Share this job
Build, Deploy, and Maintain AI for an Unpredictable World
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.
The Role
The Embedded Operations Manager is Striveworks’ permanent, on-the-ground presence at a US Army Division HQ, accountable for the “last mile” of the NGC2 program. Partnered with the Field Program Manager and Technical Lead, you bridge the gap between high-level program intent and daily tactical execution. This role is designed for a mission-driven professional who thrives on proximity to the Soldier and understands that in an operational environment, presence and follow-through are the only currency that matters. You are the critical link that determines whether Striveworks is viewed as a vendor or a trusted partner.
Operating with high autonomy, you manage the ground-level logistics, readiness, and relationships that keep the program moving. An Embedded Operations Manager operates with autonomy, sound judgment, and an ownership mentality—not because someone is watching, but because the mission demands it. This role requires someone who can hold the ground professionally when the rest of the team is remote, who can read a room full of Soldiers and a room full of senior leaders with equal credibility, and who knows instinctively when to solve a problem and when to escalate one. As an operations manager, you take personal ownership of the mission. You are the program’s earliest warning system, ensuring that our software engineers and data scientists are perfectly synced with the unit’s operational reality.
Day-to-day responsibilities:
- Ensure operational readiness: Own the preparation and execution checklists for all exercise cycles and operations, avoiding preventable gaps in systems or facilities access
- Manage on-site logistics: Lead end-to-end ground logistics, including equipment accountability, teammate enablement, and local project team coordination
- Cultivate Soldier-level trust: Build deep, daily relationships across the formation to ensure that Striveworks’ capabilities are integrated into the unit’s actual workflow
- Act as an early warning system: Identify and surface customer friction points, sentiment shifts, and emerging requirements to leadership with enough lead time to act
- Resolve ground-level issues: Handle customer exceptions and satisfaction issues autonomously, escalating scope changes or senior commander demands to the Field Program Manager
- Coordinate field execution: Synchronize on-site team activities with the technical roadmap, ensuring ground-level progress alignment to operational requirements
- Maintain situational awareness: Provide continuous updates on delivery risks and blockers to ensure that program leadership is never surprised by conditions on the ground
This position offers a hybrid/on-site work environment at customer sites at Schofield Army Barracks in Oߵahu, Hawaiߵi. You will be expected to travel up to 15% of the time.
The Right Fit
In addition to the specific skills and expertise detailed below, we are looking for individuals who share our values. Sharing a set of values allows us to move at the speed of trust.
Collectively, we value a high-trust work environment where people respect each other and use candor kindly and constructively. We value work that intersects passion and perseverance, we geek out about the potential of our contributions, and we find joy in working hard on things that matter. Finally, we value taking ownership, having agency, and feeling individual responsibility for collective results.
Here’s what we’re looking for:
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent demonstrated experience and 3+ years of experience with military operations at brigade level or higher; someone who understands how formations operate, not just how they’re organized
- Demonstrated ability to operate autonomously in ambiguous, high-stakes environments; sound judgment about when to act and when to escalate
- Track record of building trust with Soldiers and senior leaders through presence and follow-through—not rank or slide decks
- Strong written and verbal communication across organizational levels; able to represent Striveworks credibly in any room at the formation
- Sufficient technical fluency to participate meaningfully in software delivery conversations without leading them
- Active Secret (or above) US security clearance
- Due to the nature of this role, candidates must have US citizenship
The Wish List
We’re very interested in candidates who possess the above qualifications, and we appreciate and consider the addition of:
- Direct experience with Army battlefield technology implementations at the unit level; you’ve watched a capability land well or fail badly, and you know the difference
- Familiarity with DOD IT, network, and communications infrastructure as an operator, not just an observer
- Experience with systems-account management, system access administration, or similar on-site enablement responsibilities in a DOD environment
- Prior experience in an embedded, liaison, or resident role with a defense technology vendor or program office
- Exposure to agile software delivery practices—enough to track a sprint, understand a backlog, and ask the right questions of a technical team
- Enough familiarity with machine learning/AI capabilities in operational contexts to explain basic value propositions to a skeptical Soldier
The anticipated base pay range for this position is $155,000–$180,000/year. Striveworks’ total compensation package includes a competitive base salary, equity grants, and cash bonuses.
The Benefits
- Medical/dental/vision insurance
- Voluntary life, long-term disability, accident, and hospital indemnity insurance
- HSA and FSA (including dependent care FSA) plans
- 401(k) plan
- Unlimited PTO
- Paid parental leave

With headquarters in McLean, VA, our range of clients includes innovative federal and public agencies leveraging design thinking, cutting-edge tech stack, and cloud-native ecosystem. We build digital solutions that impact the lives of millions of Americans.
We’re looking for an experienced Principal ML Ops Engineer to support our customers and join our passionate team of high-impact problem solvers.
About the role:
Raft is building mission-critical AI and data platforms for the Department of Defense (DoD). Our systems ingest and process massive volumes of real-time data from hundreds of sensors and operational sources, transform that data into usable intelligence, and deliver it to operators through mission applications and common operational pictures that support time-sensitive decision-making.
Our platform operates at scale, processing billions of events per day with low-latency data pipelines and cloud-native infrastructure. As Raft expands its AI capabilities, we are investing in a more mature end-to-end machine learning platform to support model development, evaluation, deployment, monitoring, and lifecycle management across both cloud and constrained operational environments.
In this role, you will help design, deploy, and mature Raft’s ML platform and MLOps infrastructure. You will work across Kubernetes-based deployment environments, GPU-enabled infrastructure, model serving systems, CI/CD pipelines, and secure production operations to enable rapid and reliable delivery of machine learning capabilities. This role is ideal for someone who understands both the infrastructure needed to run ML systems in production and the practical needs of ML engineers building and deploying models.
What you’ll do:
- Design, build, and maintain secure, scalable MLOps infrastructure and deployment pipelines for production ML systems
- Help mature Raft’s internal ML platform and model lifecycle capabilities, including model packaging, registry/catalog workflows, deployment, monitoring, and operational support
- Deploy and manage machine learning workloads on Kubernetes, including GPU-enabled clusters
- Support model serving and inference infrastructure for a range of ML use cases, including traditional ML, computer vision, speech/audio, and LLM-based systems
- Build and maintain CI/CD workflows for ML services, model artifacts, and platform components
- Partner closely with ML engineers, software engineers, and product teams to move models from experimentation to reliable operational deployment
- Improve observability, reliability, security, and maintainability across ML infrastructure and services
- Help evaluate and standardize runtime patterns, serving frameworks, and deployment architectures for production ML workloads
- Contribute to infrastructure decisions across edge, on-prem, and cloud-hosted deployment environments
- Support compliance-driven deployment practices and secure software supply chain requirements in defense environments
- Get hands-on with customers at the most forward-leaning places in the Department of War
What we are looking for:
- 7+ years of relevant hands-on experience in software engineering, platform engineering, DevOps, MLOps, or related technical roles
- 5+ years of experience with Docker and Kubernetes in production environments
- 5+ years of experience supporting enterprise cloud infrastructure or applications in AWS, Azure, or similar environments
- Strong experience provisioning, operating, and troubleshooting Kubernetes clusters in production
- Experience building and maintaining machine learning platforms, infrastructure, or pipelines used by engineering or data science teams
- Practical experience deploying machine learning workloads on Kubernetes
- Experience managing clusters or workloads that use GPUs
- Strong understanding of Helm and Kubernetes deployment patterns
- Strong scripting or programming skills, preferably in Python
- Experience with modern software engineering practices including Git, CI/CD, DevOps, and Agile/Scrum workflows
- Strong troubleshooting, systems thinking, and communication skills
- Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-moving environment
- Ability to obtain and maintain a Top Secret clearance
- Ability to obtain Security+ certification within the first 90 days of employment
Highly preferred:
- Experience with ML model serving and inference platforms such as Triton Inference Server, KServe, Ray Serve, vLLM, or similar technologies
- Experience with secure and compliant deployment practices in regulated or government environments
- Experience with Kubernetes-based ML platforms such as Kubeflow
- Familiarity with service mesh technologies such as Istio
- Experience provisioning and debugging complex CI/CD systems

- Background working with machine learning engineers on model training, evaluation, packaging, and release workflows
- Familiarity with storage and artifact systems used in ML platforms, such as S3-compatible object stores, registries, and metadata/catalog system
What success looks like:
- You help Raft stand up a more mature and repeatable ML platform for deploying and managing models in production
- ML engineers can move faster because deployment, serving, and platform workflows are clearer, more reliable, and easier to use
- Model deployments become more secure, observable, and supportable across real-world mission environments
- The organization gains stronger infrastructure for model lifecycle management, including deployment standards, runtime patterns, and platform ownership
Clearance Requirements:
- Ability to obtain and maintain a Top Secret clearance

Mattermost Federal | TS/SCI Environments
Mattermost Federal builds secure collaboration platforms used by U.S. defense, intelligence, and national security organizations operating in the most demanding environments in the world.
We are looking for Forward Deployed Engineers (FDEs) who want to solve real operational problems alongside mission teams. In this role you will work directly with operators, analysts, and engineers to deploy and build systems that are used every day in mission environments.
This is not a traditional engineering role. You will operate close to the mission, often inside classified environments, working through ambiguity and building solutions that have immediate operational impact.
The problems you will work on here are hard, ambiguous, and consequential.
What You’ll Do
Forward Deployed Engineers operate at the intersection of engineering, operations, and mission execution.
You will:
- Work directly with defense and intelligence organizations to understand operational problems
- Deploy and integrate Mattermost in classified and mission-critical environments
- Build plugins, integrations, and automations that enable operational workflows
- Prototype new capabilities quickly and iterate based on operator feedback
- Debug complex systems operating in constrained environments
- Help shape the evolution of the Mattermost platform based on mission needs
You will move between writing code, deploying infrastructure, and working directly with operators, often within the same week.
Travel is typically approximately one week per month onsite with customers.
Commitment to the Mission
Forward Deployed Engineers at Mattermost Federal are mission partners, not external vendors.
Our customers operate in environments where coordination and decision speed matter. FDEs work side-by-side with mission teams to deliver systems that improve operational outcomes.
We are looking for engineers who:
- Care deeply about supporting national security missions
- Take ownership of outcomes, not just code
- Are comfortable operating in classified environments
- Thrive when solving complex problems with limited information
AI-Forward Engineering
Mattermost Federal is aggressively adopting AI-enabled workflows across mission operations.
FDEs will be among the first engineers deploying and operationalizing AI capabilities in secure environments.
You will help build and deploy systems such as:
- AI agents that summarize operational channels and generate SITREPs
- AI-assisted mission timelines and decision logs
- Knowledge retrieval across operational history
- AI tools that help operators understand fast-moving mission data
We are looking for engineers who are excited about experimenting with AI capabilities while maintaining mission-grade security and reliability.
What We Look For
- Strong engineering ability (Go, Python, TypeScript, or similar)
- Comfort working across the full stack from infrastructure to applications
- Ability to solve open-ended technical problems
- Strong communication skills with both engineers and operators
- Willingness to travel ~1 week per month
Ideal Background
- Experience working with DoD, IC, or national security organizations
- Experience deploying systems in secure or classified environments
- Familiarity with Kubernetes, distributed systems, and APIs
- Experience building integrations or operational tooling
Security Requirements
- U.S. Citizenship required: For candidates residing in the U.S.: This role may require the ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government security clearance in the future. As such, U.S. applicants must be U.S. citizens and eligible under applicable clearance requirements.
- Active TS/SCI clearance preferred or ability to obtain one
- Applicants must meet eligibility requirements for access to export-controlled information as defined by U.S. export control laws, including EAR and ITAR.
Why This Role Exists
The best software is built close to the problem.
Forward Deployed Engineers at Mattermost Federal work directly with the people using the systems we build. You will see problems firsthand, build solutions quickly, and deploy them into environments where reliability, security, and speed matter.
If you want to build systems used in real missions and work directly with the people who depend on them, this role is for you.
Mattermost takes a market-based approach to pay and pay may vary depending on your location. The successful candidate’s starting pay will be determined based on job-related skills, experience, qualifications, work location, and market conditions. These ranges may be modified in the future.
