I’m Joining the Canadian Digital Service (CDS)

I have big news to announce. I’m going to be joining the Canadian Digital Services starting March 25th.

Some of you may know CDS, others may know the other countries’ versions such as USDS and GDS.

CDS’s goal is to bring together skills and expertise to help the Government of Canada embrace new methods and tools to improve how it designs, builds, and delivers services.

If you’re like me, you may be at first skeptical of this being possible in government. As some of you may know, I spent a few years working in the Government and, like many, experienced some things that were sub-optimal.

I had many many great chats with folks at CDS. It made me believe in the vision that CDS has and that the folks there have the mandate to bring about change.

I’m very excited to be joining such an elite group of individuals working on one of the most important tasks – delivering government services that work.

If you want to read about some of the accomplishments CDS has already achieved, I suggest following their blog (sadly not on WordPress 😉 ). If you’re interested in joining me, CDS is hiring for many many roles.
