  We propose the use of D-brane realizations of Dynamical Supersymmetry
Breaking (DSB) gauge sectors as sources of uplift in compactifications with
moduli stabilization onto de Sitter vacua. This construction is fairly
different from the introduction of anti D-branes, yet allows for tunably small
contributions to the vacuum energy via their embedding into warped throats. The
idea is explicitly exemplified by the embedding of the 1-family $SU(5)$ DSB
model in a local warped throat with fluxes, which we discuss in detail in terms
of orientifolds of dimer diagrams.
