Orbital Labs is a software factory focused on the continuous development and deployment of USSF mission applications to the warfighter. As a software node of Platform One (the DoD Executive Agent for DevSecOps) for Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD), we aim to avoid vendor-lock by building an open platform (Kubernetes/Istio), embrace DevSecOps principles outlined by the DoD CIO and AF CSO, consider microservice/service mesh architectures early and often, leverage event-driven behavior across the entire portfolio, and build a network of like-minded software shops for collaboration. By embracing the eXtreme Programming (XP) flavor of agile software development (paired programming, test-driven development, CI/CD, and small iterations), Orbital Labs is able to continually produce quality code that can adapt to rapid changes and meet the high level of security standards necessary for maintaining a Continuous Authority to Operate (C-ATO). The applications developed at Orbital Labs follow the user-centered design, a process through which designers continuously engage with users and employ a mixture of investigative and generative methods and tools to develop an understanding of user needs. This whole process results in recurring capability delivery to the operations floor.
