Around 25,000 individuals have shown interest in joining Tech Force, a newly proposed initiative within the Trump administration aimed at bringing AI and technology experts into federal government roles, according to a senior administration official speaking on Tuesday. The program, part of a broader effort to strengthen the government’s technological capabilities, seeks to recruit engineers, data scientists, and software developers to help modernize federal operations and advance AI integration across agencies. The high level of interest reflects growing enthusiasm among tech professionals to contribute to public-sector innovation, particularly amid rising national attention on artificial intelligence. The administration has not yet disclosed details on hiring timelines, selection criteria, or specific roles, but officials say the initiative is designed to fast-track qualified candidates into strategic positions.
