NASA, OPM Announce New NASA Force Website, Open Job Applications

NASA and the US Office of Personnel Management (OPM) launched the NASA Force website on Friday, opening applications for roles aimed at recruiting the nation’s top engineers and technologists to support America’s space program.

The NASA Force, a new hiring initiative developed in partnership with OPM, will recruit and place high-impact technical talent in mission-critical roles that support NASA’s exploration, research, and technology priorities, ensuring the agency has the intellectual expertise needed to maintain U.S. leadership in air and space.

“The NASA Force brings together skilled early- to mid-career engineers, technologists and innovators to help us achieve our world-changing missions,” said NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman. “Our successful Artemis II mission has inspired the world and generated a lot of interest to join our workforce to be part of the Golden Age of innovation and exploration.”

NASA Force is part of a wider US Tech Force initiative established by OPM to recruit elite technical professionals into the federal service of multiple agencies to modernize systems, accelerate innovation, and strengthen mission delivery.

“NASA has always shown the world what American talent can achieve when it’s focused on a bold mission,” said OPM Director Scott Kupor. “NASA Force is about ensuring the agency has access to the next generation of innovation and strong partnerships with private sector talent to drive its very ambitious agenda.”

The first job application is below NASA Force for aerospace engineer positions for a two-year term position, with the potential for further term extensions. More openings are expected in the coming weeks and months.
