(The Hill) – A Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) aide known as “Big Balls” resigned from his role on Monday following the exit of White House adviser Elon Musk. 

A White House official with knowledge of the matter confirmed that Edward Coristine, who codes under the “Big Balls” alias, departed, in a statement to The Hill. 

Coristine, a 19-year-old high school graduate, was privy to high-level meetings involving DOGE, the Treasury Department, Commerce Department and military operations throughout his tenure at the newly formed digital agency. 

He is no longer active on his Google Workspace account with the General Services Administration (GSA), according to reports from WIRED.

Earlier this month, Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) joked about where the computer programmer would go amid a public fallout between President Trump and Musk. 

“Now that the national divorce is happening … who’s going to get ‘Big Balls’?” Moskowitz asked during a House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing. 

“I’m worried about him. The children always get caught in the middle.”

However, Coristine left no clues about where he’ll land. The 19-year-old was previously enrolled at Northeastern University but told the student newspaper he would not return to study after working with Musk at DOGE.

Prior to Coristine’s role in the federal government, the teenager founded Tesla.Sexy LLC in 2021 and was employed by Musk at Neuralink for several months, as reported by WIRED.

He was reportedly fired from an internship with Path Network for sharing sensitive information with competitors, according to Bloomberg. 

Over the last few months, the coder has worked with DOGE to reduce federal spending, address issues with fraud and abuse within government services and gained access to the United States’s payroll systems.
