  • Evening shift - Monday - Thursday: 1:30 pm - 11:00 pm; Friday: 9:00 am - 1:00 pm

Qualifications
Education

Experience
  • Minimum 3 years of aircraft maintenance experience

Skills
  • Strong knowledge of aircraft systems and aviation maintenance procedures
  • Interest in mentoring, coaching, and developing others
  • Ability to work in a structured, compliance-driven training environment
  • Basic proficiency with Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams, SharePoint)
  • Flexibility to support evening or weekend schedules as needed

What We Offer
  • Competitive hourly pay
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance from day one of employment
