Air Traffic Controller Olive Branch Tower, Olive Branch, MS.

<h3>Job Description</h3>
Job DescriptionSalary: 
A3 Technology, Inc. is seeking a Computer Scientist to support the FAAs Terminal Flight Data Manager (TFDM) program and its integration with the Flight Data Input/Output (FDIO) system. TFDM is the tower modernization initiative designed to replace legacy, paper-based and stand-alone systems with integrated, digital tools that improve flight data management, surface traffic efficiency, and collaborative decision-making. The program consolidates multiple older systems into a modern, electronic environment. FDIO serves as a critical interface within this ecosystem, enabling controllers and other stakeholders to access real-time flight plan information from ERAM and other core FAA systems. Together, TFDM and FDIO provide more accurate data sharing, improved departure sequencing, and enhanced situational awareness to reduce delays, save fuel, and improve the safety and predictability of air traffic operations.
 
Responsibilities:
<ul>
<li>Develop, manage, and validate site-specific adaptation data. </li>
<li>Configure TFDM system parameters for local operations, coordinating with FAA facilities and airports, performing adaptation testing and validation, and maintaining version-controlled configuration records to ensure operational accuracy and interoperability.</li>
<li>Develop, manage, and validate site adaptation data tailored to each TFDM deployment location (e.g., airports, TRACONs).</li>
<li>Ensure configurations accurately reflect local airspace, surface operations, runway/taxiway layouts, and stakeholder operational procedures.</li>
<li>Collect and analyze local site data such as flight schedules, runway configurations, surveillance inputs, and facility-specific workflows.</li>
<li>Coordinate with local air traffic control facilities and airport authorities to obtain accurate, up-to-date operational data.</li>
<li>Customize TFDM system parameters for surface metering, departure sequencing, runway assignments, and flight data exchange to reflect the unique needs of each site.</li>
<li>Support the calibration of algorithms to optimize surface traffic management and throughput.</li>
<li>Use FAA-authorized adaptation tools and software to build, test, and deploy configuration files.</li>
<li>Maintain version control and configuration management practices to ensure integrity and traceability of adaptation data.</li>
<li>Ensure consistency and compatibility of adaptation data with interfacing systems such as STARS, ERAM, TBFM, and surface surveillance systems.</li>
<li>Coordinate interface configurations to support seamless data exchange and operational interoperability.</li>
<li>Participate in Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT), Site Acceptance Testing (SAT), and Dry Runs to validate the performance of site-specific adaptations.</li>
<li>Conduct pre- and post-deployment validation to ensure the system functions as intended under local operating conditions.</li>
<li>Collaborate with FAA site leads, facility personnel, airline operators, and airport representatives to define operational needs and validate adaptation outputs.</li>
<li>Support user feedback collection and incorporate changes into adaptation updates.</li>
<li>Prepare technical documentation including adaptation guides, site-specific configuration summaries, and version release notes.</li>
<li>Maintain records of adaptation changes, rationale, and stakeholder approvals in accordance with FAA change management policies.</li>
<li>Provide on-site or remote support during TFDM system transition, ensuring real-time resolution of adaptation-related issues.</li>
<li>Assist controllers and technical staff in understanding adaptation elements during the go-live process.</li>
<li>Recommend updates to the adaptation process based on lessons learned, system feedback, and evolving site requirements.</li>
<li>Monitor deployed system performance and propose adaptation refinements to enhance operational effectiveness. </li>
</ul>
 
Skills Required:
<ul>
<li>Detail oriented, independent, self-motivated, and a proactive team member. </li>

???? About Us
At HelpDesk.tech, we’re the tech partner that makes IT feel easy for companies nationwide. We thrive on good vibes, smart solutions, and keeping our clients (and our team) happy. We work hard, laugh often, and fix problems faster than you can say, “Have you tried turning it off and on again?”
???? About the Role
If you’re the kind of person who thrives in the middle of organized chaos and gets satisfaction from making things run smoothly, this might just be your dream job.
We’re looking for a Service Coordinator — the ultimate multitasker who keeps the trains running on time, the techs on task, and the clients feeling cared for.

???? What You’ll Be Doing
<ul>
<li>Be the first friendly voice our clients hear, answering phones and helping route tickets like a pro.</li>
<li>Work directly with our technical wizards (a.k.a. techs) to make sure requests are prioritized, scheduled, and completed on time.</li>
<li>Keep tabs on multiple projects and tickets at once... because you can absolutely walk, talk, and juggle flaming torches at the same time.</li>
<li>Monitor service boards and dispatch tickets like an air traffic controller (but with fewer blinking lights).</li>
<li>Anticipate roadblocks before they appear, basically, see around corners like a time-traveling problem-solver.</li>
<li>Keep communication flowing between clients, techs, and anyone else who needs to stay in the loop.</li>
<li>Help maintain order in the land of fast-paced tech chaos and maybe crack a joke or two while you’re at it.</li>

<li>The ability to handle multiple priorities without losing your cool (or your coffee).</li>
<li>A proactive mindset, you don’t just react; you anticipate.</li>
<li>Bonus points if you’ve worked in a service desk or dispatch role before.</li>
</ul>
???? Why You’ll Love Working Here
<ul>
<li>A team that feels more like a family (minus the awkward holiday dinners).</li>
<li>A company that’s growing and wants you to grow with it.</li>
<li>We celebrate wins, big and small.</li>
<li>You’ll never be bored. Seriously.</li>
<li>Competitive pay, benefits, and plenty of opportunities to shine.</li>
</ul>
???? In Short
If you’re the kind of person who thrives under pressure, loves being the heartbeat of a team, and finds joy in keeping everyone (and everything) moving. We want to meet you!
Apply today and help us keep the tech world turning... one happy client at a time.
