Technician

The Opportunity

This role sits between manufacturing and flight. You’ll be on the shop floor building and integrating aircraft, then working through issues that show up when systems come together. Mechanical, electrical, avionics. It all connects, and when something doesn’t work, you’re the one figuring out why.Some days are clean builds.

Some days are troubleshooting something that should work but doesn’t.

If you’ve only worked from perfect instructions, this will feel uncomfortable. If you’ve actually had to figure things out, you’ll do well here.

What You’ll Do

• Build and assemble aircraft structures and systems from the ground up

• Fabricate and work with composite parts (not the only thing you do)

• Install and integrate mechanical, electrical, and avionics systems

• Build and route wiring harnesses, perform testing and validation

• Troubleshoot mechanical and electrical issues during build and integration

• Support ground and flight test prep, including pre/post flight checks

• Work across subsystems and understand how they interact, not just your piece

• Improve build processes, tooling, and repeatability over time

What You’ll Bring

• 4+ years building or working on real systems (aircraft, UAVs, vehicles, robotics)

• Strong mechanical foundation first, not just composites

• Experience working across full systems, not just one area

• Electrical experience: harnesses, connectors, testing, basic diagnostics

• Ability to read drawings, wiring diagrams, and actually use them

• Comfortable troubleshooting without a step-by-step playbook

• High ownership. If something is off, you don’t walk past it

Bonus Points If You Have

• A&P license

• Flight line or flight test support experience

• Experience working under FAA or similar standards

• Background in autonomous systems or UAVs

• Experience in low-rate production or scaling builds
