Browse TSA and aviation security openings at Dallas/Fort Worth International and Dallas Love Field - updated continuously. Built for DFW officers.
Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport is the fourth-busiest airport in the world by operations and one of the largest employers in the DFW metro - approximately 28,000 employees on airport property across airlines, concessions, ground handling, and security. TSA at DFW operates one of the largest Transportation Security Officer workforces in the country, with continuous hiring given the scale of passenger throughput across 5 terminals and 200+ gates.
The federal employment benefits - FEHB health coverage, FERS retirement, TSP, paid leave, and locality pay - make TSA Officer positions at DFW among the most comprehensively compensated security positions in Texas. Starting Band D pay of $22-$25/hr with federal benefits packages that commercial security employers cannot match makes the 3-6 month hiring process worth pursuing for candidates who want long-term security employment stability.
TSA Transportation Security Officers at DFW operate passenger and baggage screening lanes - running walk-through magnetometers and advanced imaging technology (AIT), processing carry-on baggage through X-ray, conducting pat-downs when required, and managing the flow of thousands of passengers per hour through DFW's high-throughput checkpoints. The operational environment is among the highest-volume TSA checkpoint operations in the US.
Private screeners and airline security officers work in more specialized environments - American Airlines security at terminals, ground handler airside security for ramp access control, and cargo facility security. SIDA credentialing and airside operational requirements distinguish airport security from standard contracted commercial security.
TSA Officer Band D entry $22-$25/hr + full federal benefits. Band E $26-$33/hr. TSA Lead Band F $33-$46/hr. Private screener/contractor $16-$20/hr.
