2 Striveworks Business Analyst Jobs Hiring Near You

"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.

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.

To support Striveworks' business growth, this role takes ownership of the execution life cycle for company legal operations, public sector contracts, and federal compliance. Operating as a critical individual contributor, you will have primary responsibility for the systematic triage, review, evaluation, and management of a broad range of agreement types-including customer contracts and subcontracts, teaming and partnership agreements, software license agreements, vendor agreements, and NDAs. You will turn complex contractual and regulatory requirements into clear, practical instructions for our operational teams, directly enabling excellent execution, protecting the company's intellectual property, and managing risk. You will have primary responsibility for maintaining databases, optimizing tracking workflows, and building out a scalable internal legal function. You will collaborate heavily across teams-including business development, engineering, security, IT, and company leadership-to ensure that the company operates and expands responsibly and efficiently.

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.

• Proficiency analyzing, logging, and tracking Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and DFARS clauses, with a clear understanding of how to translate clause requirements into concrete internal actions
• Experience implementing or administering process improvements for contract life cycle management
• Exceptional attention to detail, document drafting skills, professional maturity, and excellent communication capabilities
• A process-oriented mindset and a highly diligent approach to managing sensitive information

The following isn't required, but we'd love to see it:

• A formal Paralegal Certificate from an ABA-approved program or a Certified Legal Operations Professional (CLOP) designation

• Experience with employment law
• Experience establishing and maturing a legal function within a growth-stage startup
• Direct experience selecting and implementing a Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) platform

• Familiarity with Department of Defense (DOD) contracts and defense industry regulatory frameworks, including the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual (NISPOM)
