We are looking for Casual, Remote Pilot Operator (RPO) candidates to join the SAIC En Route Automation Modernization (ERAM) Offshore Automation (OA) team providing Air Traffic Controller training services for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) at the Honolulu Control Facility (HCF) located Honolulu, HI at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport.

(PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT a UAS, UAV, RPV, or DRONE pilot position.)

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 internal or external (mostly controllers) sources, input proper entries into the automated system to simulate pilot actions, translate displayed information into appropriate ATC terminology, and respond to the controller 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. To provide such air traffic services, the FAA trains air traffic controllers 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 controllers to become fully certified air traffic controllers with the introduction of ERAM OA. SAIC must provide training and training related support services as required for ATC facilities.
