Defense Digital Service is a rapid response team that includes top engineers, data scientists, product managers and designers - from industry, government and the military - working within the Chief Data and Artificial Intelligence Office.

This mission is extremely technical—from putting satellites in the sky, to developing drones, to securing sensitive data and managing the digital services used by millions of service members and civilians. However, oftentimes this work is hindered by outdated tools and practices that lag behind private sector standards. We work alongside public servants and service members, incorporating best practices and talent to build a better future—now. Our projects range widely, from strengthening our national security, to taking care of our Veterans and their families. Will You Join Us? We`re always looking for talented, diverse individuals to join us for a one-to-two-year `tour of duty` to work on some of today`s most important IT challenges at the Pentagon and across the globe. The Department of Defense is also always looking for great technical talent to work across its many programs.

The Joint Staff assists the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in accomplishing his responsibilities for: the unified strategic direction of the combatant forces; their operation under unified command; and for their integration into an efficient team of land, naval, and air forces. The Joint Staff is composed of approximately equal numbers of officers from the Army, Navy and Marine Corps and Air Force. In practice, the Marines make up about 20 percent of the number allocated to the Navy. Since its establishment in 1947, statute has prohibited the Joint Staff from operating or organizing as an overall armed forces general staff; therefore, the Joint Staff has no executive authority over combatant forces. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS) is the highest-ranking military officer in the United States Armed Forces and is the principal military advisor to the President, the National Security Council, and the Secretary of Defense. U.S. Marine Gen. Joe Dunford is the 19th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The Joint Chiefs of Staff consist of the Chairman, the Vice Chairman, the Chief of Staff of the Army, the Chief of Naval Operations, the Chief of Staff of the Air Force, the Commandant of the Marine Corps and the Chief of the National Guard Bureau. The collective body of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) is headed by the Chairman (or the Vice Chairman in the Chairmans absence), who sets the agenda and presides over JCS meetings. Responsibilities as members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff take precedence over duties as the Chiefs of Military Services. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is the principal military adviser to the President, Secretary of Defense, and the National Security Council (NSC), however, all JCS members are by law military advisers, and they may respond to a request or voluntarily submit, through the Chairman, advice or opinions to the President, the Secretary of Defense, or NSC.
