Meet the young team of software engineers who reduce the Government waste to Doge -u: Report
Tesla and Space X CEO Elon Musk Doges efforts to reduce government waste and simplify federal bureaucracy include the employment of several upcoming young software engineers in charge of “modernizing federal technology and software for maximizing government efficiency and productivity”.
Six young men at the age of 19 and 24 – Akash Bobba, Edward Corristine, Luke Faroritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger and Ethan Shaotran – have taken over the various roles perfected by Doge’s agenda, according to the Wired report.
Bobba was part of a highly respected management, entrepreneurship and technological program at UC Berkeley and internsed it at the Hedge Fund Bridgewater Associates, Meta and Palantir.
“Let me tell you something about Akasha,” Garden Executive Director AI Charis Zhang Posted on X About Bobbi in recent days. “During the project in Berkeley, I accidentally deleted our entire cod base 2 days before the deadline. I panicked. Akash just stared at the screen, shrugged and wrote everything from scratch in one night – better than before. We ended up early and got first and first got first handed over in class.
Corristine, a recent high school graduate who studied mechanical engineering and physics in northwest, has previously worked for the Musk Neralink project, Wired reported.
Bobba and Costine are reportedly working directly under Anna Scales as “experts” at the Office of Staff Management of the United States (OPM).
Kliger was listed on Linkedin as a special advisor to the OPM director, and was attended by UC Berkeley in 2020. Kliger also worked at AI Company Databricks. Kliger’s copy It contains a post, “a curious case of Matt Gaetz: How the deep state destroys its enemies,” as well as others called “Pete Hegsetth as Minister of Defense: Warrior Washington is afraid.”

The second post at the underground is entitled: “Why did I give up seven digits salary to save America.”
Killian is listed as a volunteer for Doge attended by McGill University after graduating from high school in 2019. Wired reported that Killian had previously worked as an engineer in a company called Jump Tradition, which deals with high -frequency financial stores and algorithms.
Last year, Shaotran studied computer science at Harvard University and is the founder of Energize AI, a launched startup with open. In addition, Shaotran participated in “Hackathon” under the auspices of Elon Musk Company, where he finished second.
The Farritor, who gave up the University of Nebraski-Lilln, has a working email address with work, has previously been an interns for Spacex, and is also a Thiel associate.
In 2023, at the age of 21, the Farritor became the first person to successfully decipher the text within the 2,000-year-old Greek coil using AI, according to Nebraska University website.
According to Wired, Bobba, Corristine, Farritor and Shaotran have work gs e-mail, along with a clearance at A-Suit, which allows them to work on the upper floor on GSA with access to all IT systems.
Fox News Digital spoke to OPM -UI GSA for comment.
In an interview with Fox News’ Peter Doocy on Tuesday at an oval office, President Donald Trump praised the intelligence of some young employees who work for Doge.
“That’s good,” Trump said about employment up to 19 years. “Still they are very smart, Peter. They are like you. They are very smart people.
“No, I didn’t see them,” Trump said when asked if he met the team. “They actually act from the White House as smart people, unlike what they do in control towers. We need smart people. We should use some of them in control towers, where we put people who were actually intellectually insufficient.
“No. We need smart people. Some are young and some are not young. Some are not young at all. But they found great things. Look at the list of things. Maybe I’ll do it tomorrow. I” We read a list of 15 or 20 things that found in USAID.
Elon Musk also publicly posted on a network of qualifications asking for and the strength of his team.
“If you are a hardcore software engineer and want to build an application for everyone, join us by sending your best work at Code@x.com,” Musk announced on X in January. “We don’t care where you went to school or even whether you went to school or what company” Big name “worked. Just show us your code.”
In another X post This week, Musk wrote: “It’s time to recognize: media reports say @Doge has some of the world’s best software engineers in fact.”
Wired cited sources that have caused concern about the approval of the Musk team, and Democrats in Congress in recent days opposed Dogeu, claiming that Doge has received an irregular approach various government systems.
Musk withdrew to the criticism of Democrats, including charges of Doge’s involvement in the supervision of the cash register.
“Tim @Doge has discovered, among other things, that the Treasury Payment Officers have always approved that they are always approved by payments, even well -known false or terrorist groups. Literally they never denied payment throughout their careers. Not once,” Musk, Doge chair, Posted early on Saturday morning on X.
Musk also responded to democratic critics, including those disturbed by his efforts to encourage reforms to USAID, saying that “hysterical reactions” show the importance of Doge’s work.
“The unexplained Government of the shadow carries out a hostile takeover of the Federal Government,” a place on the Democratic New York Senar Chuck Schumer, he said in the X account, echoing the MP who made during the press conference.
“Doge is not a real government agency. Doge has no authority to make consumption decisions. Doge has no authority to exclude programs or neglect the federal law. Doge’s behavior cannot be allowed to stop. Congress must take measures to return the rule of law.”
Musk described the effort to break through Government waste and bureaucracy as a one -off opportunity.
“Hysterical reactions like this are how you know that @Doge is doing a job that is really important,” he wrote in response to Schumer.
“This is the one who shot. The success of the people of the people.”
