We help local governments modernize how they hire, classify, and manage their workforce — work that directly shapes public services for millions of people. Our platform is live across 12 states with 60+ jurisdictions representing over 10% of the US population, including major counties like Santa Clara and Contra Costa in the Bay Area, Orange County in LA, and Snohomish County in Washington State. Demand is outpacing our team, and we're building to meet it.\n\nHolly is a seed-stage team of 20+ operators with deep roots in public service, civic tech, and AI. We’ve raised $10M from leading investors in government technology and the future of work and have grown over 100X in the last year. We center public servants and impact in every decision and we bring that same care to how we work here at Holly.\n\nAbout the Opportunity\n\nWe're hiring a Deployment Strategist as we scale from 50 to 150+ government clients. \n\nYou'll own the full implementation journey for new partners - cities, counties, special districts — from the moment they sign through their first months on the platform. That means running kickoff sessions at county HR offices, leading 4-6 weeks of structured training, and making sure teams are genuinely confident using the product on their own.\n\nAt full pace, you'll be managing 2–3 simultaneous launches. You'll frequently be in rooms with two to twenty public servants, many of them using AI for the first time. You're their entry point - and you'll shape the outcomes they get.\n\nThis role is for someone who sees the public sector as one of the most important and underserved places to build — and wants to work directly alongside the people doing that work.\n\nWhat you'll do\n\nLaunch government partners onto Holly.Own the full implementation journey, from a kickoff session (often in-person at a county HR office), to structured training in the weeks that follow to ensure the team is confidently using the platform on their own. You’ll keep timelines tight and stakeholders aligned across multiple launches at once.\n\nStay close after launch. Track usage, spot problems before they escalate, troubleshoot data issues, and step in when a client identifies a new use case, hits a workflow challenge, or brings on new team members who need onboarding.\n\nShape the product. Observe patterns no one else on the team sees — what's confusing, what's missing, what would save a client hours.The path from customer insight to shipped feature runs through you.\n\nWho You Are\n\nYou understand how local government works and you know that getting people to adopt new tools is as much about relationships and trust as it is about the software. \n\nYou're a strong project manager who follows through. You ask good questions, stay close to the details, and don't consider a launch successful until the client is actually getting value.\n\nYou're energized by talking to government folks for the vast majority of your day and frequent travel for in-person collaboration, up and down the West Coast (and across the country as we expand).\n\nYou're entreprenurial and proactive, with a natural inclination to understand how things can be done better (especially through the use of different technologies) and a bias toward action.\n\nWhat You'll Get\n\nDirect impact – because of your work, real government clients will learn to use the platform for critical projects that will improve the quality and output of the public sector\n\nPlaybook ownership – you're not just executing a playbook, you're writing it. What you learn shapes how Holly scales to 100+ customers \n\nCompetitive package – $90K - $125K base with equity, comprehensive health benefits (platinum plan with vision and dental), 401(k) benefits, professional development stipend\n\nCollaborative work culture – join a small, high-trust team of A players that cares about the work and each other\n\nReady to join us? A few important notes: \n\nInterview process:\n\nInitial screen (30 min)\n\nTake-home assignment (~2 hours) \n\nCase interview (45-60 min) \n\nOnsite at Holly HQ in NYC\n\nLocation: Remote with California or West Coast-based location preferred\n\nWork Philosophy:We’re an early-stage startup serving government clients with real deadlines. There may be occasional off-hours work around launches or critical issues. We value flexibility and trust you to manage your schedule while maintaining a high bar for responsiveness and customer outcomes.\n\nApplicants must be authorized to work in the U.S. without requiring sponsorship. \n\nHolly is committed to building a diverse company and working with the broadest talent pool possible. We encourage applications from all races, religions, national origins, genders, sexual orientations, gender identities, gender expressions, and ages, as well as veterans and individuals with disabilities.\n\nOriginally posted on Himalayas","description_format":"text","description_chars":4882,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Professional development"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Government"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-10T11:28:00Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":57,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":0.85,"p_active":0.741,"p_room":0.9,"age_days":17,"expected_fill_days":27,"reasons":["seen:17","win:mid"],"computed_at":"2026-10-28T05:59:10Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":125000,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/holly-deployment-strategist","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/holly-deployment-strategist.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-28T21:06:17Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":29079,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-29T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4380991},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4380991"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fholly-deployment-strategist"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fholly-deployment-strategist"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fholly-deployment-strategist"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/holly-deployment-strategist\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fholly-deployment-strategist"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":2219046}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"holly.ai","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":2219046},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
