article

NASA has joined forces with the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) on a new mission to recruit engineers and technologists.  

What we know:

NASA Force will work to identify and recruit talent into mission-critical roles to support NASA’s mission to explore the unknown in air and space, innovate for the benefit of humanity, and inspire the world through discovery and help ensure the agency has the cutting-edge expertise needed to maintain U.S. leadership in space.

Dig deeper:

NASA Force is built upon OPM’s US Tech Force, which was created to recruit an elite group of engineers to build the next generation of government technology. 

What they're saying:

"America’s leadership in space depends on extraordinary talent," said NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman. "NASA Force will help us attract the next generation of innovators and technical experts who are ready to solve the toughest challenges in exploration, science, and aerospace technology. This partnership strengthens our workforce and helps ensure the United States remains the global leader in space."

"NASA represents the pinnacle of American innovation," said OPM Director Scott Kupor. "Through NASA Force, we are ensuring the world’s premier space agency has access to the very best engineers and technologists in the country. If you want to work on the most consequential technical challenges anywhere in the world, this is your call to serve."
