## Job Description

## 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
