GSA engineering lead resigns over DOGE ally's request for access

The lead engineer for a government text messaging service resigned Tuesday over a U.S. DOGE Service ally's request for access to sensitive data, including personal identifying information, according to two people familiar with the matter. Steven Reilly, the engineering lead for left the Technology Transformation Services arm of the General Services Administration after the branch's new director, Thomas Shedd, sought administrative access to all components of the site, the people said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss personnel issues. Shedd is an eight-year Tesla alumnus who now runs the part of the GSA that hosts technologists who are deployed to provide access to a wide variety of government services, a unit he has called 'Swiss army knives.'
