Gig Eagle: Transforming DoD’s access to talent

Developed by Eightfold for the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU), Gig Eagle is a talent matching platform that allows interested DoD Reservists and Guard members to build profiles that highlight their civilian expertise and find short-term work within the DoD. 

By employing AI/ML methodologies, reservist profiles will automatically match open requirements posted by DoD organizations needing specialty skills. The goal is to make finding and deploying suitable resources to meet specific needs as frictionless as possible. 

AI/ML algorithms will identify the right service members to serve in specific positions based on rare and valuable skill sets and/or unique expertise or experiences from the civilian world.
