About the role

Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) seeks a Lead Assistant Airfield Operations Officer to oversee airfield activity, ensuring safe and compliant operations under FAR 139 and FAA rules.

You will engage with FAA control towers, issue NOTAMs, monitor wildlife and incidents, and ensure timely reports and safe responses during irregular operations.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
