Full Job Description

We are selecting qualified, self-motivated K9 Security Specialists who own and operate an approved working dog. In this role, you will perform specialized explosive detection and preventative sweeps across high-consequence environments, including maritime terminals, cargo facilities, large venues, transit hubs, and private executive details.

Working alongside an integrated security unit, you and your Explosive Detection Canine (EDC) will serve as an active physical deterrent and detection capability within fast-paced, high-visibility operational settings.

Primary Responsibilities

Threat Mitigation & Screening: Execute routine and high-profile explosive detection sweeps throughout shipping hubs, port facilities, vessels, athletic arenas, public gatherings, and VIP details.
Operational Execution: Work effectively as an autonomous operator or as a collaborative member of a joint security force.
Canine Care & Maintenance: Assume full accountability for your working dog’s daily health, physical conditioning, housing environment, and operational readiness.
Documentation & Compliance: Maintain precise deployment logs, routine training records, and incident documentation in full compliance with corporate guidelines and government regulations.
Professional Standards: Model strict adherence to policies, client protocols, and local, state, and federal laws while maintaining a clean, professional appearance.
Adaptability & Mobility: Adjust seamlessly to evolving operational demands, shifting shift patterns, and temporary travel assignments.

Eligibility & Candidate Requirements

Citizenship & ID: U.S. Citizen or National with a valid Driver’s License (REAL ID compliance preferred).
Transportation: Access to a personally owned, safe transport vehicle suitable for working dogs and equipment.
Screening & Clearances: Successful completion of a background check and drug test. Ability to obtain and hold necessary contract-specific security clearances. (We are a Drug-Free Workplace.)
Core Competencies: Fluent in English (written and verbal) with sound judgment, excellent interpersonal communication skills, and the capacity to work both independently and collaboratively.
Language Proficiency: English required; Spanish language skills are a strong plus.

Canine Ownership & Care Standards

Owner-Provided Dog: Candidates must legally own or possess verified handler rights to a qualified Explosive Detection Canine (EDC) capable of operating in complex environments.
Health & Veterinary Care: Maintain up-to-date health records, complete vaccination histories, and medical clearances verifying the canine is fit for continuous duty.
Proficiency & Maintenance: Regularly conduct and record maintenance training sessions to ensure your canine retains continuous compliance with detection standards.
Housing Facilities: Maintain clean, secure, and climate-conscious living quarters for your canine that meet or exceed welfare and safety standards.

Training & Certification Criteria

Current Certifications: Active accreditation from a recognized third-party body (e.g., NAPWDA, USPCA, NPCA, or equivalent TSA/DOT-recognized standard). Proof of certification is required prior to assignment.
Experienced Handlers: 4-Week Program
Non-Experienced Handlers: 8-Week Program (Note: Recognized third-party certifications can be coordinated or provided if necessary.)

Preferred Background

Background as a Military Working Dog (MWD) Handler, Law Enforcement K9 Officer, or private-sector EDC Handler.
Prior operational exposure in cargo logistics, port security, arena management, or executive protection.
Familiarity with 3PK9 and related national explosive detection standards.

Physical & Schedule Expectations

Physical Capabilities: Able to manage and restrain a 50–90 lb working canine; capability to stand, walk, kneel, lift equipment, and conduct foot patrols for long durations.
Environmental Tolerance: Comfortable working outdoors in extreme heat, cold, rain, or humidity, as well as high-noise, high-density, or tight spaces (e.g., cargo holds, ships, crowded stadiums).
Work Availability: Flexible availability to cover variable shifts (days, nights, weekends, holidays, and overtime). Must be open to temporary travel deployments ranging from brief special event assignments to extended project support.

Pay: From $40.00 per hour

Benefits:
