Platform One 6-Month Remote Residency Call for Applications Published May 5, 2023 By Ladonna McGrew, Lackland AFB Talent AFB Platform One is seeking applicants for our competitive 6-month residency program! This program intends to build a cadre of DevSecOps users and professionals to accelerate DevSecOps adoption and capabilities within the Department of Defense and directly support the DoD DevSecOps initiative. Legacy software acquisition and development practices in the DoD do not provide the agility to deploy new software "at the speed of operations." In addition, security is often an afterthought, not built in from the beginning of the lifecycle of the application and underlying infrastructure. DevSecOps is the industry best practice for rapid, secure software development. Prospective candidates are military (CONUS - Active Duty) and civilian personnel with the following skill sets: Software Development Software Product Management Cybersecurity Acquisition Program Management Contracting (Contract Specialist & Contracting Officers) Interested in applying? All applications will be accepted between 1 May thru 23 June, with the Residency start/onboarding date of 31 July 2023. Google Docs: Platform One | Residency (dso.mil) Selected program residents will be full-time employees at Platform One and will work remotely on one of the various Value Streams at Platform One: Big Bang, Party Bus, Iron Bank, Cyber, CNAP, Acquisitions Program Management, or Contracting Team. Program residents will learn and participate in the best application development practices, learn to use, manage, and build DevSecOps pipelines, and develop an appreciation of the importance of security-centric application development and tooling.
