The Pentagon’s technology shop posted a job opening this week for a new Defense Innovation Unit director, an unusual move for such a high-level position.

The agency’s current director, Mike Brown, announced in April he would leave the post at the end of his four-year term in September, despite being offered an opportunity to stay another year.
