The Hidden Cost of Defense Tech Talent Wars
Lucas and Luna examine how major defense contractors are losing the war for software talent. With Lockheed Martin, Raytheon Technologies, and Northrop Grumman facing intense competition from Silicon Valley, the episode breaks down why base salaries alone aren't enough to retain top engineers. We look at specific retention strategies, the impact of visa policies on hiring pools, and what this means for government contract delivery timelines in late 2026.
