Job description

Are you looking to use your pilot experience to support and protect heroes? Join us! As a Senior Pilot, you will lead complex missions and provide strategic direction in operational planning and execution. You will oversee junior pilots, ensure adherence to safety and regulatory standards, and perform advanced piloting duties in various scenarios including experimental test flights and special mission training. Your role involves significant leadership responsibilities and direct contribution to the success of high-stakes missions.
The Mission Solutions and Technologies (MST) business area provides affordable, turn-key command/control, communications, integrated ISR, force protection and security solutions worldwide. The MST team has a long legacy of supporting the Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security, commercial and international customers with years of experience in platform operations, engineering and full lifecycle management across domains - air, land, sea, space and cyber.
Responsibilities:
  • Lead and execute complex flight missions across diverse operational environments.
  • Supervise and mentor junior pilots, ensuring their continuous professional development.
  • Conduct and oversee experimental test flights, providing critical feedback for aircraft development.

  • Monitor and enforce compliance with safety protocols and aviation regulations.
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for mission-critical communication and coordination.
  • Review and analyze flight data and mission outcomes for continuous improvement.
  • Facilitate training programs and drills to maintain a high state of preparedness.
  • Liaise with engineering teams to address and resolve technical issues.

  • Note: PIC for this purpose is defined as Captain/Aircraft Commander of record, not simply the sole manipulator of the controls. SNC considers only pilot time in fixed wing aircraft toward minimum qualifications. This does not include simulator, helicopter, flight engineer, bombardier, navigator, RIO, EWO, WSO, NFO, or Special Crew.

Qualifications We Prefer:
  • Military flight training background.
  • Experience in leadership roles within combat or operational missions.
  • Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) certification.
  • Advanced degrees in aviation or aerospace disciplines.
  • Experience with experimental and advanced aircraft systems.
  • Bachelor's degree in a related field of study.
  • Recent mission completion and/or prior service.
  • US Military survival and/or physiological training.
  • Background in the Aerospace and Defense Industry, the US Department of Defense, or US Military.
  • 2000 hours total fixed-wing time as pilot-in-command (PIC) or second-in-command (SIC) in a multi-engine turbo-prop aircraft, jet aircraft, or combination thereof with GTOW 12,500 or greater.
  • An active Secret U.S. Security Clearance is required

Essential Functions:
  • Must be able to lift up to 50 lbs regularly.
  • Ability to remain seated and operate flight controls for extended periods.
  • Frequent travel required; ability to be on-call for missions.
  • Ability to work in potentially hazardous or high-stress environments.
  • Must possess fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination for operating aircraft controls.
  • Ability to work both independently and as part of a team.
  • Must be able to hear and respond to audio cues in loud environments.
  • Capacity to work in an office or hybrid environment when not on missions.

This posting will be open for application for a minimum of 5 days and may be extended based on business needs.
