The group is defined by its camaraderie, pride, and a shared sense of purpose in its daily mission to secure the nation's borders.
As an Air Interdiction Agent (AIA), you will join a rewarding career in aviation-based law enforcement. This role is designed for skilled pilots interested in a mission-driven environment where you will work alongside a dedicated team to detect, prevent, and apprehend terrorists, weapons, and contraband attempting to illegally enter or attack the United States.
Your day-to-day operations will involve conducting air patrols, surveillance, and pursuit activities to intercept smuggled goods via land vehicles, aircraft, or vessels. You will monitor behavior patterns of suspects, analyze strategic and tactical intelligence, and support search and rescue and humanitarian efforts. This is a full-time, security-based opportunity offering job stability and the chance to serve on the front lines of national security.
