Transportation Security Officers Jobs
553,368 open positions · Updated daily
Transportation Security Officers are at the frontline of safeguarding passengers across airports, rail stations, and maritime hubs. With the expansion of high‑speed rail networks, the introduction of biometric boarding gates, and TSA’s latest threat‑detection mandates, agencies are hiring more officers than ever. The industry also values tech‑savvy staff who can operate advanced screening equipment like X‑ray analyzers, explosive trace detection (ETD) systems, and automated passenger‑flow analytics. This surge in demand means more job openings, competitive pay, and a clear path into specialized security domains.
Within the Transportation Security Officer category, positions range from Ground Screening Officer to Advanced Threat Analyst, Patrol Officer, and Training Specialist. Ground Screening Officers conduct manual and automated screening of luggage and passengers, using X‑ray, CT scanners, and ETD kits. Patrol Officers monitor terminals for suspicious activity, employ laser‑based detection tools, and enforce TSA regulations. Advanced Threat Analysts evaluate threat intelligence feeds, calibrate predictive software, and coordinate with law‑enforcement partners. Training Specialists design curricula that cover TSA compliance, emergency response, and the latest security technologies.
Salary transparency is crucial for Transportation Security Officers because pay varies widely by jurisdiction, seniority, and specialty. Knowing the exact figures for entry‑level ETD technicians versus senior patrol supervisors helps officers negotiate fair wages, plan career moves, and assess opportunities across airports, rail terminals, and corporate security teams. Transparent data also levels the playing field for candidates who traditionally lack insider knowledge of TSA salary scales.
