Any senior member of a company that keeps their job and/or gets promoted by taking credit for successes that would have happened regardless of their presence. Typically these people are found in companies where all the hard work has been done and the company now makes money automatically no matter what anyone does. Just like once all the hard work of getting a satellite in orbit is done it will usually stay in orbit. The only real task of the satellite pilot is to not do anything truly stupid AKA knock the satellite out orbit.
Despite us being only one of 4 oligopoly energy suppliers our CEO just got a $5 million bonus for last years performance when. He's such a satellite pilot.
Our head of HR is the biggest satellite pilot I've ever seen.

Get the Whiskey Pilotmug. Twenty One Pilots is a band with potential, composed of a coward, Tyler Joseph, and a wonder of the world, Josh Dun. Their lyrics are deep, for example:
-I'm a bendy-toe
-Help me bowl of rice
-Josh Dun !
-I put my socks on my feet
-Tyler Joseph, Twenty One Pilots
-Help me bowl of rice
-Josh Dun !
-I put my socks on my feet
