The National Design Studio Became a DOGE Landing Pad. Now ‘Big Balls’ Is Recruiting
WIRED spoke with an engineer who was interviewed by Edward “Big Balls” Coristine for a government engineering role at the NDS, the White House agency staffed by other DOGE veterans.
AI Summary
The National Design Studio (NDS), headed by Airbnb co‑founder Joe Gebbia, has taken over the role of redesigning federal websites after the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) wound down following Elon Musk’s exit in June 2025. NDS aims to make government sites “beautifully designed” with a “great user experience,” but it keeps many DOGE traits, including an opaque structure and a roster of former DOGE staff. The agency is actively hiring, and an engineer who interviewed for a position noted the continued use of DOGE‑style practices.
