What is remote aviation?

A Remote Aviation job involves performing aviation-related tasks from a remote location, often using technology like drones, flight simulation software, or remote communication tools. These roles can include drone pilots, air traffic controllers, aviation analysts, and remote maintenance support. They enable professionals to contribute to aviation operations without being physically present at an airport or flight location. Remote Aviation jobs are growing due to advancements in technology and increased demand for flexible aviation solutions.

What does a typical workday look like for remote aviation?

A typical workday in Remote Aviation involves conducting pre-flight planning, operating unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or other remotely piloted aircraft, analyzing flight data, and preparing reports on flight operations. Professionals often collaborate with clients, engineering teams, or regulatory agencies to ensure mission parameters and safety standards are met. While much of the work is performed from a remote location, clear communication with team members and a readiness to troubleshoot technical issues are essential. Tasks may vary depending on the specific industry (e.g., surveying, agriculture, inspection), but adaptability and precision are always key.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in remote aviation?

To thrive in Remote Aviation roles, individuals need a strong background in aviation operations, remote piloting skills, and regulatory knowledge, often supported by certifications such as a Remote Pilot Certificate (Part 107) or equivalent. Familiarity with flight planning software, remote control systems, and GPS navigation tools is typically required. Excellent problem-solving abilities, situational awareness, and clear communication are vital soft skills for this position. These competencies are important to ensure safety, regulatory compliance, and effective coordination while operating from remote locations.

We are looking for a Full-time, Remote Pilot Operator (RPO) candidates to join the SAIC Controller Training Solutions (CTS) team at the Atlanta ARTCC (ZTL), located in Hampton, GA, supporting air traffic controller training services for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

Job Description:

The RPO plays the role of the pilot and other controllers in the Air Traffic Controller training simulator.  The RPO operates a combination of a simulated radar display and voice communication system to simulate the actions and communication of pilots and remote ATC facilities during medium and high-fidelity training exercises. RPOs receive voice commands from students, input proper entries into the automated system to simulate pilot actions, translate displayed information into appropriate ATC terminology, and respond to the student via the VCS utilizing proper phraseology.

The candidate will be required to complete the following certifications:  Classroom (pass test on airspace and procedures) and Lab (perform as a Remote Pilot Operator on all positions).

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is responsible for ensuring that air traffic control specialists provide the flying public with a high level of safety and professionalism. A well-trained Air Traffic Control (ATC) workforce plays an essential role in fulfilling this responsibility. The FAA employs more than 14,000 air traffic controllers. They work in air traffic facilities of varying sizes, safely separating more than 50,000 aircraft in the National Airspace System (NAS) each day.

To provide such air traffic services, the FAA trains new air traffic control specialists and provides recurrent training to current air traffic control specialists. The FAA utilizes Contractor-provided instructional services at FAA ATC facilities throughout the U.S. and its Territories to ensure these training needs are met. The scope of the contractor-provided services includes all training and training program support to successfully train and prepare students to become fully certified air traffic controllers. SAIC must provide training and training related support services as required for all types and levels of ATC facilities.

  • US Citizenship is required with the ability to obtain and maintain a Public Trust clearance

Desired Skills and Experience:

  • Experience working in a multidisciplinary team (Multimedia Developers, Quality Assurance, Instructions System Designers, Subject Matter Experts, Instructors)
  • Experience and certification in ATC Tower, TRACON or En Route simulation lab is strongly desired, but not required
  • Effective oral and written communications skills
  • Working knowledge of the FAAO JO 7110.65 is strongly desired, but not required
