The Trump administration is starting a two-year program called the United States Tech Force, in partnership with major tech companies, to hire around 1,000 young tech professionals.
-
This initiative aims to have participants work in the government on modernization projects, including artificial intelligence, and eventually transition to private sector jobs.
-
The government has formed alliances with over 28 tech companies like Apple, Microsoft, Meta, and Oracle, among others, to support the program.
-
The program primarily targets early-career tech talent skilled in areas like software engineering, cybersecurity, and data analytics.
-
Positions will offer competitive salaries ranging from $130,000 to $195,000, with no specific degree or experience requirements. These tech-focused roles will be largely based in Washington, D.C., with some remote work possibilities.
-
The Office of Personnel Management is leading the recruitment process, which includes resume review, technical assessment, interviews, and background checks.
-
Private sector partners are expected to provide mentorship and training resources, and are encouraged to consider Tech Force participants for employment post-program.
-
The government plans to make this program annual and expand it, with hopes of growing the initiative in the future.
