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

 Key Responsibilities 

  • Teach aircraft maintenance systems, procedures, and techniques in a hands-on environment
  • Deliver FAA-aligned curriculum to prepare students for A&P certification
  • Demonstrate practical skills used by A&P mechanics and aviation technicians
  • Maintain accurate records of attendance, grades, and student progress
  • Support curriculum updates and collaborate with program leadership
  • Help create a structured, engaging, and safety-focused learning environment
  • Maintain classroom, lab equipment, and training materials  

Qualifications 

Education

Experience 

  • Minimum 3 years of aircraft maintenance experience
