Airborne Solutions is a division within Leidos Australia. We serve to protect Australia's borders and save lives and want you to be a part of that journey.

Airborne Solutions Australia provides aerial surveillance services under contract to the Australian Border Force as the largest civil maritime surveillance operation of its kind in the world, and a search-and rescue capability across nearly 10 percent of the earth's surface under contract to the Australian Maritime Safety Authority.

Working in a highly dynamic environment, our passionate, mission focused aircrew are made up of people from diverse industry backgrounds.

Mission aircrew play a critical role in our civil surveillance and search and rescue operations. Our missions are diverse and require a high level of communication and teamwork.

We're always looking for talented people to join our team. If you're interested in being a part of our mission crew as an observer, you've come to the right place.

We know that our team is our greatest asset and that our success relies on us attracting and retaining highly skilled and motivated people who are passionate about what they do.

To do this, we offer:

• A mission: a sense of purpose,
• Market competitive remuneration,
• A range of benefits, 
• Challenging and diverse opportunities,
• A supportive team environment, and
• Opportunities for professional and personal growth

The types of mission aircrew roles we have available are:

• Electronic Observers (Airborne Surveillance) - based out of our Cairns, Darwin and Broome bases.
• Visual Observers (Search-and-Rescue) - based out of our Cairns, Essendon and Perth bases.

To be considered for any suitable roles we have available, please submit your expression of interest by clicking 'I'm Interested' and filling out the details in this form.

Unlike many job opportunities in aviation that require extensive certification and experience, mission aircrew roles can generally be filled by people from any career stream or industry, who are looking for a new opportunity or challenge.

Applicants may also need to meet International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) requirements. In certain circumstances this can place limitations on persons who hold dual nationality, permanent residency or are former nationals of certain countries as per ITAR 126.1.
