Transportation Security Screener

Conduct screening of passengers, baggage, or cargo to ensure compliance with Transportation Security Administration (TSA) regulations. May operate basic security equipment such as x-ray machines and hand wands at screening checkpoints.

AI will significantly augment Transportation Security Screeners by automating initial threat detection in scans and flagging suspicious behaviors, boosting efficiency. This shift will likely transform the role, requiring screeners to focus more on verifying AI alerts, resolving complex anomalies, and conducting physical inspections, rather than primary visual identification.
