frisker
Security checkpoint worker
A frisker is someone who frisks—typically a security guard, police officer, or bouncer who pats down a person's body checking for concealed weapons or contraband: The frisker at the entrance found a knife in his waistband.
Less commonly, frisker can mean someone who frolics or moves playfully, from the older sense of frisk meaning to leap about.
