Justin Dumais (born August 13, 1978, in Oxnard, California) is a former Olympic diver and current commercial airline pilot. He represented the United States in the 2004 Summer Olympics and placed 6th in the 3-meter synchronized spring board with his brother Troy Dumais.

Dumais was raised in a family of divers and swimmers, and in 1994 was named Southern Pacific Association Diver of the Year in his class, as were all his siblings.[1]

He retired from diving after the 2004 Olympics and joined the US Air Force.[2] Dumais became a fighter pilot, flying F-16 aircraft in the Air National Guard, and is now a first officer at American Airlines.

In the 2011 US National Championships, he and his younger brother Dwight Dumais participated in the men's 3-meter synchronized diving event. They finished third with 378.63 points, behind top finishers brother Troy Dumais and Kristian Ipsen.[3]
