Experienced Non Certed Technician

JOB DESCRIPTION AND PERFORMANCE STANDARDS

SUMMARY: The Experienced Non-Certificated Aircraft Technician performs advanced mechanical assembly, structural modifications, and complex troubleshooting on aircraft systems. This role requires the ability to complete day-to-day maintenance tasks with minimal supervision, drawing on extensive hands-on aircraft maintenance experience, which may include military service or heavy maintenance environments. Because this position does not require an FAA Airframe and/or Powerplant (A&P) certificate, all completed work must be reviewed and signed off by a certificated technician or inspector.
