This unique position allows experienced Flight Surgeons to continue serving the Air Force mission by evaluating medical qualification and waiver cases for future Airmen and Guardians.

The ideal candidate possesses a thorough understanding of Air Force medical standards, exceptional attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple complex cases while maintaining consistency and accuracy. They recognize that every medical record represents an individual seeking to serve and appreciate the importance of applying standards fairly, consistently, and without bias.

Successful candidates are comfortable interpreting medical documentation, coordinating with providers and military treatment facilities, and navigating complex physical standards cases. They thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment where accuracy, organization, and timely case management directly contribute to the Air Force's accession mission.

Candidates with prior experience supporting Air Force Aerospace Medicine, Medical Standards Management Elements (MSME), MEPS, operational medicine clinics, or physical standards programs are particularly encouraged to apply.

Responsibilities:

• Review complex accession medical records and waiver requests.
• Apply DAFMAN 48-123, DoDI 6130.03, Air Force Waiver Guide, and related guidance.
• Provide expert recommendations regarding accession eligibility.

• Participate in policy interpretation and implementation.
• Prepare medical summaries and consultation reports.
• Coordinate with military treatment facilities and specialty consultants.
• Support enterprise-level aerospace medicine initiatives and special projects.
• Maintain accurate documentation and timely case processing.

Required Qualifications:

• Doctor of Medicine (MD) or Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO).
• Current unrestricted U.S. medical license.
• Board Certified in Aerospace Medicine, Occupational Medicine, Preventive Medicine, or another specialty meeting Air Force requirements.
• Minimum three (3) years serving as an Active Duty Military Flight Surgeon within the past fifteen (15) years.
• Experience applying military medical standards for accession, flying, and special operational duty evaluations.

Preferred Qualifications

• MAJCOM or enterprise-level aerospace medicine experience.
• Previous experience reviewing medical waivers.
• Experience developing or interpreting Air Force medical policy.
• Prior operational medicine leadership experience.

Why Join ASI
