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.

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:

  • 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.

This does not include simulator, helicopter, flight engineer, bombardier, navigator, RIO, EWO, WSO, NFO, or Special Crew.

Qualifications We Prefer:

  • 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.

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.
