Job Summary


RedTown Technical Services, LLC has a full-time opening for a Meteorologist at the U.S. Army Garrison–Kwajalein Atoll Reagan Test Site in the Republic of the Marshall Islands. This position is located at the Kwajalein Weather Station and requires relocation to Kwajalein Island.


This position is available as either unaccompanied or accompanied (to include dependents). Pets are prohibited during the relocation process. This includes service animals or emotional support animals. 


Benefits of this position include:

  • Potential significant federal and state tax benefits associated with overseas employment (Marshall Islands income tax is currently 5% annually)
  • Company-paid studio apartment-style housing 
  • Company-paid dining hall meals 
  • Company-paid utilities (employee-paid internet, approximately $95/month; Starlink is also available at the employee’s expense)
  • Two company-subsidized off-island trips per year 
  • Company-paid relocation to Kwajalein 
  • Paid holidays and vacation 
  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage 
  • Group Term Life and AD&D 
  • Short-Term and Long-Term Disability
  • 401K participation


Kwajalein Island is similar to a small U.S. town located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The island has a population of approximately 1,500 people and offers a wide range of recreational activities, including scuba diving, sailing, fishing, soccer, softball, clubs, and community organizations. The island also has a library, modern gym, grocery stores, bowling alley, and other facilities. More information about the community is available at the U.S. Army Garrison–Kwajalein Atoll website at https://home.army.mil/kwajalein/index.php. 


Because Kwajalein is a remote island location, medical and dental facilities are available but limited. Candidates must pass pre-deployment medical screening, drug testing, and security clearance requirements. Candidates must be able to obtain an interim Secret clearance prior to deployment and maintain a Secret clearance for the duration of employment.


Role and Responsibilities

  • Provide weather forecasts for the Kwajalein Atoll region using satellite imagery, weather radar, surface observations, numerical weather prediction output, and other available datasets. 
  • Issue weather warnings, watches, and advisories. 
  • Provide meteorological support for mission operations, including preparation of post-mission analysis reports. 
  • Support development, improvement, and integration of weather station processes and procedures. 
  • Work collaboratively with forecasters, mission personnel, and technical staff in an operational environment.
Requirements:

Required Qualifications

  • B.S. degree in meteorology, atmospheric science, or related engineering or scientific field. 
  • A minimum of 5-7 years of forecasting experience.
  • U.S. citizenship
  • Ability to obtain and maintain a Secret security clearance
  • Experience with Windows operating systems and Microsoft Office
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills
  • Ability to relocate to Kwajalein Island and work in a remote island environment

Desired Qualifications

  • Master’s degree in meteorology or equivalent experience
  • Experience in tropical meteorology and forecasting
  • Experience interpreting Doppler and dual-polarization weather radar data
  • Experience with satellite weather interpretation
  • Experience with Linux operating system 
  • Programming or scripting experience, including Python, C, shell scripting, or similar languages 
  • Current active security clearance
  • Experience supporting military, aviation, range, or mission-critical weather operations

Salary Range

$26–$33 per hour, approximately $54,080–$68,640 annually, depending on experience and qualifications.

Total compensation is enhanced by company-paid housing, meals, relocation, utilities, employee medical/dental/vision coverage, and potential tax advantages associated with overseas employment.


Physical Requirements and Work Environment

The workload will vary and may be stressful at times, particularly during mission support or significant weather events. The position requires sitting at a computer or workstation for extended periods. Kwajalein has a tropical climate with wet and dry seasons and little daily temperature variation. Candidates must be able to live and work in a remote island environment with limited access to comprehensive medical care.
