Koniag IT Systems, LLC, a Koniag Government Services company , is seeking an AI/RPA SME- Mobile Training Team 1 with a TS/SCI security clearance to support KITS and our government customer at Langley Air Force Base, VA.
We offer competitive compensation and an extraordinary benefits package including health, dental and vision insurance, 401K with company matching, flexible spending accounts, paid holidays, three weeks paid time off, and more.
The AI/RPA Technical Subject Matter Expert serves as part of Mobile Training Team 1 (MTT 2), Regional Cluster B: Approximately 10-12 wing visits annually covering Western CONUS and OCONUS locations (Davis-Monthan, Nellis, Mountain Home, Kadena, and proximate wings), delivering wing-level technical instruction, live demonstrations, and proof-of-concept automation builds across Air Combat Command's CONUS and OCONUS installations. Deploy on multi-week regional rotations as a two-person team with a Change Management Specialist, providing the technical depth that makes AI and RPA adoption real for operational Airmen.
This is not a briefing role. Run live RPA demonstrations using actual wing data, build proof-of-concept automations in 2-3 days that address unit-specific workflows, conduct hands-on Virtual Instructor-Led Training (VILT) labs, and capture use-case requirements that feed the JBLE-based proto@type development queue. Bridge between operational mission needs and technical AI/RPA solutions.
