Job Description:
The Senior Air Vehicle Operator (AVO) - Deployment Operations is responsible for executing and leading V-BAT flight operations in support of DoD and foreign customers in both land-based and maritime OCONUS environments.

The Senior AVO must balance mission execution with customer satisfaction while upholding the highest standards of safety, compliance, and operational excellence.

  • Willingness to travel up to 50-75% in support of deployments 
  • Ability to lead and operate independently in small teams under austere conditions 
  • Strong aviation judgment, decision-making, and risk management skills 
Preferred Qualifications
  • FAA Instrument Rating and/or Commercial Pilot License  
  • Experience operating as aircrew on manned aircraft  
  • Prior military service, particularly with overseas or deployed operations  
  • Maritime or shipboard UAS operational experience
