Our client has multiple opportunities for CONUS and OCONUS to support an Army Aerostat contract. These roles are located along the southwest border of the USA and can include the states of Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico, as well as several OCONUS sites. We are looking for experienced operators to start immediately and individuals who fit the criteria listed below for future training classes.
We are looking for individuals with a technical background who have been deployed or assigned (U.S. Military) to OCONUS locations worldwide with previous aerostat experience—specifically, candidates with mechanical, I.T., ISR, and electronic backgrounds.
You must have a CURRENT ACTIVE DOD SECRET CLEARANCE to be considered for these roles.
PSS-T is a Quick Reaction Capability (QRC) program that provides integrated persistent surveillance, detection capabilities, and Full Motion Video (FMV) dissemination to Tactical Operation Centers (TOC). This is an immediate need.
Primary areas of responsibility:
· Operators/maintainers will participate in the overall hands-on operation of the aerostat system, including launch, in-flight, recovery, and moored activities.
· Candidates will perform all functions to operate the aerostat, an Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) platform; its Mobile Mooring Platform (MMP), Sensor Payload(s), communications and navigation systems, as well as associated support equipment (Boom Lift, Forklift, All-Terrain Vehicles (ATV's), and Electrical Power Generators).
Required Education/Experience:
· A high school diploma or equivalent, plus formal technical training (via military or civilian technical schools).
· A valid driver's license.
Level 1 Operator requirements: Must check at least one box along with previous aerostat experience:
¨ Electronic Maintenance candidates with an in-depth background in radar, ISR, E.W., communication, avionics repair, and troubleshooting.
¨ ISR operators with in-depth airborne or ground data collection and dissemination background.
¨ Information technology candidates with Network Installation (BICSI or Network+ or Comp T Certification); The preferred qualifications for the I.T. position is certification as CCIE with fiber optic certification or industry occupational specialties as a CISCO Network Administrator.
¨ Mechanical Maintenance candidates with experience repairing and troubleshooting diesel generators and vehicles, automotive engines, hydraulics, and aircraft mechanical backgrounds are highly desired.
Deployment Requirements:
For OCONUS, roles candidates must be willing to work and live on U.S. Military Bases and at remote site locations with very sparse accommodations. Overseas locations will be near areas of potential conflicts/hostilities. Additionally, the candidate must meet all physical, medical, and other requirements for overseas deployment by current DOD regulations.
For CONUS, roles will be located along the southern border of the USA.
Pay will vary per site for both CONUS and OCONUS roles depending on location.
