VA is inviting Veterans to join its Office of Information and Technology (OIT) as IT professionals who can help modernize and enhance service delivery for all Veterans. IT professionals are key to improving the Veteran experience. Former service members can use their passion for innovation to support the Veteran community through a purpose-driven career in information technology.
VA is eager to hire Veterans or beneficiaries with experience in systems development, networking, cyber security, cloud infrastructure and end-user services to further OIT’s digital transformation. You can help us create a seamless, unified digital experience for the large Veteran community that VA serves.
To VA Chief Information Officer Kurt DelBene, many of those seeking an IT professional career with OIT do so out of a sense of service to a greater cause, a special quality that the private sector can’t compete with in the same way. OIT seeks to solve problems that matter to Veteran outcomes on a scale of size and complexity that is hard to find elsewhere. VA is committed to modernizing systems and using innovative technology to better serve Veterans and deliver services and benefits.
“We’re at the heart of delivering a quality health care and benefits experience to Veterans,” DelBene said.

I hope there are many available IT jobs open to part-time AND entry level work. In my experience many veterans are trying to gain IT skills only to find very little opportunity for entry level. On-the-job training can be done remotely or hybrid. Part-time work is ideal for veteran care-takers, those with other jobs, those with other family obligations and for those continuing their education but still needing and wanting to work in IT.
It would also be interesting to see how remote these positions are. With cyber/identity experience and heavy ux work.. the skills are not easy to find.
