Metrea’s solutions are built for elegance: effective, efficient, and evolving. This approach enables our partners to do more with less and achieve outsized, asymmetric advantage against rapidly evolving threats.

Headquartered in Washington, DC, Metrea has facilities across the United States, the United Kingdom, Europe, and beyond.

You will manage the records team, drive compliance with FAA documentation standards, and serve as the organization’s primary authority on records integrity for the aerial refueling fleet.

  • Serve as AMOS super-user for records management functions and provide system training to staff
  • Ensure compliance with FAA record-keeping requirements and retention policies
  • Oversee component traceability documentation and life-limited parts tracking
  • Lead root cause analysis for records-related findings and non-conformances


What You’ll Bring

Must Haves

  • Associate’s degree in aviation management, business, or a related field; Bachelor’s degree preferred
  • Minimum 5–7 years of experience in aircraft maintenance records management
  • At least 2 years of management or team lead experience

  • Thorough knowledge of FAA regulations including Parts 43, 91, and 121 record-keeping requirements
