Transportation Security Administration (TSA/DHS)

If you’re looking to build a rewarding career and serve your country, you’ve come to the right place. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) offers opportunities for a wide range of candidates — whether you’re an experienced business professional, recent college or high school graduate, or transitioning military personnel.

Transportation Security Officers (TSOs) are the face of the agency and the people on the frontlines. They’re responsible for screening passengers, baggage and cargo to keep our transportation systems safe. In addition to the TSO role, there are many security positions that create opportunities for a long, fulfilling career.

TSA offers a robust benefits package to provide stability and security for its employees. All permanent employees qualify for health, vision and dental insurance, retirement, paid annual leave and more. There are also perks such as the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP), where TSA matches employees’ contributions up to 5%.

At TSA, we are dedicated to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace. We believe that our workforce should reflect the diversity found in the communities we serve nationwide.
