Shield AI is a venture-backed defense-tech company with the mission of protecting service members and civilians with intelligent systems. Its products include Hivemind autonomy software, V-BAT and X-BAT aircraft, and Aechelon simulation and synthetic reality technologies. With offices and facilities across the U.S., Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific, Shield AI’s technology actively supports operations worldwide. For more information, visit www.shield.ai.

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. 
Required Qualifications:
  • Minimum of 2000 documented unmanned flight hours or 1000 manned flight hours 
  • Demonstrated instructor experience (manned or unmanned aviation)  
  • FAA Private Pilot License (PPL)  
  • FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate 
  • Ability to obtain and maintain an FAA Class II Medical Certificate

  • 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  
  • Previous experience as a Site Lead or in a leadership role overseeing aviation operations
