Maintain detailed records of test setups, procedures, and results to support engineering analysis.
Support short-term off-site testing at various test ranges as needed to meet project objectives.

Required Qualifications

5 years in related aerospace maintenance or development support role, A&P certificate preferred. Direct engine experience required, aerospace piston or turbine preferred.
Multi-talented across overall test ops, understanding of flight test development campaigns and helping to lead the engineering team on requirements.
Hands-on experience with prototyping, testing, and iteration of mechanical systems.
Strong attention to detail and problem-solving skills, self-motivated to create solutions.
Willing to support short-term off-site testing at various test ranges.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with small turbine engines or aerospace propulsion systems in a testing or maintenance capacity.
Familiarity with test cell operations, instrumentation setup, and engine calibration techniques.
A&P (Airframe and Powerplant) certification or equivalent hands-on aerospace training.
Ability to interpret technical drawings, schematics, and engineering instructions.
Experience supporting flight test campaigns or aerospace development programs.
