Have You Ever Wanted To Live And Work In Paradise?

Are you a fan of sunshine, beautiful tropical weather, white sandy beaches and crystal clear water?  What if you could get paid to live and work in paradise? Ohh, its also tax free. It sounds to good to be true; but, there is a company that can make it happen. Kwajalein Range Services, LLC is the primary contracting company that staffs for positions at the Ronald Reagan Ballistic Missile Defense Test Site on the Kwajalein Atoll. With an average daily maximum temperature of 86.5ºF and average relative humidity ranges from 83% at local noon to 78% at midnight, Kwajalein is a tropical paradise. The positions at the location range in job sector; however, they do have a heavy IT presence at the facility. Since the positions are OCONUS, you are considered an expat federal contractor and eligible to make $97,600 free of federal taxes

Transitioning to a position on the atoll would take some adjustment. No private vehicles are allowed on the island, so you'd have to get back into riding a bike. You will be isolated from the world since Kwajalein is solely a military complex. However, the community is bound by this isolation so many people will have a more fulfilling social life on the island than they did off.

Does this sound interesting to you? If it does check it out.

I wrote a post a while back about my experiences with KRS. It can be read here - Experiences With Kwajalein Range Services

Note: These are military contract positions and many/all require the ability to obtain security clearances, in addition to the DoD 8570 certification requirement for all IT positions.

  1. KRS' contract is due to expire/enter option years in 2015. Is there any word on the government picking up the option years or renewing the contract?
