Multiple positions available at the Department of Government Efficiency
Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has announced job openings for multiple positions. The department, tasked with modernizing federal technology, shared the announcement on its official X account. This marks the second time in recent months that DOGE has invited applications.
Job opportunities at DOGE
The department is seeking “world-class talent” to join its team. Available positions include software engineers, InfoSec engineers, financial analysts, HR professionals, and other highly qualified individuals.
“The DOGE Team is looking for world-class talent to work long hours identifying/eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse,” the department stated on X. “These are full-time, salaried positions for software engineers, InfoSec engineers, financial analysts, HR professionals, and, in general, all competent/caring people.”
DOGE had previously posted similar job openings in December 2024, highlighting its ongoing efforts to recruit skilled professionals for its mission.

Interested candidates are encouraged to apply by sending a direct message to DOGE’s official X account. The application should include:
- A few bullet points demonstrating exceptional ability.
- A cell phone number for direct communication.

Compensation and workload details
The department has not disclosed specific salary ranges for the advertised positions. Elon Musk, in a November 2024 post, suggested that DOGE employees might not receive pay, though it remains unclear whether this applies to all roles.
In the same month, DOGE’s X account reported that “thousands of Americans” had expressed interest in joining the department but cautioned potential recruits to expect long hours, with some positions requiring more than 80 hours of work per week.
About the Department of Government Efficiency
DOGE was established in November 2024 during Donald Trump’s second term, with Elon Musk appointed as its leader. According to the executive order that created the department, its primary mission is to “modernize federal technology and software to maximize governmental efficiency and productivity.”
With its ambitious objectives and Musk’s leadership, DOGE has drawn significant attention as a bold initiative at the intersection of technology and governance.
