Government Civilians

Change the World

Here at DARPA, we launch audacious ideas from every corner — including from our government civilians who constantly challenge the status quo in their areas of expertise. They are the force behind the future: the planners, the protectors, the implementers who make the impossible possible.  

Think of them as creative problem-solvers—the ones who keep the gears turning, the systems secure, the talent flowing, and the mission on track. From budget and finance to IT, security, contracting, legal, facilities, and more, these professionals are building the infrastructure of innovation.

Our General Schedule (GS) positions are term-limited (up to four years), with the potential to become permanent roles. If you’re ready to work where big ideas become real-world breakthroughs, set up a search agent on USAJOBS using the keyword DARPA and make your contribution to the legacy.
