Service member transitioning from military to civilian career

From Service Member to Defense Professional

The DoD SkillBridge program allows active-duty service members to gain civilian work experience during their last 180 days of service. At Masego, that means real mission work — not classroom exercises.

Our team is over 50% veterans. We understand the transition because we have lived it. SkillBridge participants work alongside experienced professionals supporting NGA, GEOINT production, and AI-enabled automation — building skills that translate directly to a career in defense technology.

Your Next Mission Starts Here

The DoD SkillBridge program allows service members to gain valuable civilian work experience during their last 180 days of service. Masego is proud to host transitioning service members and provide hands-on experience in GEOINT, AI-enabled automation, data engineering, and defense program management.

As a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business with over 50% veteran staff, we understand the transition firsthand. Our program is designed to be flexible, supporting remote work and continued education while giving you real-world experience that translates directly to a civilian career in the defense and intelligence community.
