Required items for all team members
These items help us fulfill security and compliance requirements (including for FedRAMP). If you get stuck, or if these requirements are confusing, ask for help from your buddy or in a cloud.gov channel.
Pre-requisites
Fulfill security and compliance requirements (including for FedRAMP) - Completed by onboarding buddy
cloud-gov
organization in GitHub, and thecloud-gov-team
team.Learn our policies and procedures
For the three trainings list at the top, your onboarding buddy will create a separate ticket to track the trainings once scheduling has been finished. This will help consolidate trainings for multiple new members to the team and prevent them from blocking progress on this onboarding ticket. Once the trainings are scheduled, they can be marked as complete here.
Getting to know cloud.gov
These items will help you come up to speed on cloud.gov and what it is, how it works, why it exists, etc. While you should take the time to go through them, please do not try and tackle it all in one shot! It can become overwhelming very quickly, so your onboarding buddy will walk through this list with you at a high level with you to help manage the work.
Slack channels
Your onboarding buddy will add you to these Slack channels:
#cloud-gov
- bots post announcements here#cg-billing
- private business development channel (if applicable)#cg-business

Machine admin rights
In order to install development tools on your Mac, you will need to request local admin rights by submitting a ServiceDesk ticket using this justification. If you're unable to create a ticket for yourself, your onboarding buddy can create one for you.
Cloud Operations account management

AWS user names should be identical across accounts so that permissions can be correctly managed by Terraform.
platform-ops
