This is a highly visible leadership role requiring field awareness, cross-functional coordination, and confident stakeholder engagement. You will represent AeroVect on-site, translating between engineering realities and operational execution—while keeping AeroVect’s leadership and the customer informed, aligned, and moving forward

You Will

  • Serve as the primary onsite leader, maintaining structured and proactive communication with AeroVect leadership and customer stakeholders.

  • Identify risks early and escalate decisively, removing blockers and driving forward momentum under pressure.

  • Enforce operational rigor and responsiveness, establishing a culture of accountability, urgency, and continuous improvement.

  • Manage and develop a team of Autonomous GSE Operators, setting high standards for safety and execution.

  • Oversee regulatory and site access requirements, including permits, clearances, and adherence to airport or facility protocols.

  • Monitor deployment KPIs and deliver structured progress updates and insights to AeroVect leadership.

You Have

  • Experience leading field operations and managing teams in safety-critical, regulated, or fast-paced environments (e.g., aviation, logistics, robotics, military).

  • A proven ability to coordinate across teams and functions, ensuring executional alignment and accountability without formal authority.

  • Strong operational instincts, high situational awareness, and comfort navigating ambiguity.

  • Confident verbal and written communication, especially with executive and customer stakeholders.

  • Demonstrated ability to drive clarity, enforce follow-through, and maintain high standards under pressure.

  • High attention to detail, urgency, and ownership mindset.

  • Valid U.S. driver’s license with a clean driving record.

  • Ability to pass a criminal background check for access to secure areas.

We Prefer

  • Experience deploying robotics, autonomous systems, or complex industrial technology in live operating environments.

  • Familiarity with airport operations, ground handling, or transportation logistics.

  • Operational experience in highly regulated or safety-sensitive settings.

  • Comfort with basic data analysis, KPI tracking, and reporting tools.
