Todd Park stepping down as America's chief technology officer

Apparently, Todd Park is planning to step down as Chief Technology Officer by year-end.

He is expected to take on a new White House role, working from Silicon Valley to recruit tech talent into government roles.

He won early praise for his 90-day development of the initial Healthcare.gov rollout, and in 2012 was picked by President Barack Obama to replace Aneesh Chopra as CTO. In this role he helped oversee the repair of Healthcare.gov’s subsequent (and disastrous) relaunch.
