Hello Matt! Big admirer of the work USDS is doing. I'm curious if USDS ever showcases its work in public venues like conferences or local meetups in DC. I'd love to learn more about the things you're all building and the processes the team goes through more directly.


Hi! My name is Jordan and I'm a USDSer at the DoD. I'll be sharing my experiences trying to open source software within the DoD at the upcoming Mid-Atlantic Developer Conference in Baltimore (Aug 1-2). As Robbie mentioned, some of us also participate in many of the user groups around town, including DCJS and Women Who Code DC.


Hey there I am a member of USDS and a local community organizer for DCJS / NodeDC / DC Code & Coffee / Alexandria Code & Coffee. I would be happy to chat at or after any event I am attending. There are a bunch of us around who are DC Tech organizers, I am sure any would be happy to chat.


We should definitely be talking to more folks locally in DC. Are there any meetups that you especially enjoy?


Matt,

I am not a US citizen but my wife is and I have been pestering her to apply to USDS for a project manager/business analyst position. We value the importance of work you are doing but we rarely see openings for her role. Sorry for posting this here but it would be awesome for her to at least chat with you folks. She has plenty of experience working with federal agencies.


Hey, I would ask her to go ahead and apply--we're always taking applications--and then indicate in the text field that she's closer to a project manager.

We have been reworking some of our competencies on product and delivery, but I'd still like to see whether it might be a match.


Hey Mat! I have a political science background and about a year of experience in coding/development. Do you all offer internships or have entry level positions?
