About The Position

This position involves performing scheduled and unscheduled O-Level maintenance on specific applicable T/M/S aircraft Egress, Environmental, and related systems. The role requires performing flight line essential services as directed by the daily Flight Schedule. Routine lifting in excess of OSHA standards is required, and ordnance loading will necessitate team lifts of up to 167 pounds per team member. The technician will have the authority to direct Level I work center personnel for specific maintenance actions and will provide guidance and technical expertise to lower-level technicians. While receiving technical guidance from supervisors, the technician may occasionally lead teams through complex aircraft tasks. This includes performing operational checks, bench checks, troubleshooting, and isolating malfunctions in complex aircraft avionics equipment such as the AN/APY-9 Radar system, various radios (UHF/VHF), Intercommunication System (ICS), radar altimeter, IFF, and Link 16 systems. The role requires using complex test equipment and specialized tools to perform checks, and repairing or replacing components based on test results, following technical documentation. Calibration, repair, and replacement of system components are also key responsibilities. The technician must practice good housekeeping, tool control, FOD awareness/prevention, and safety. An in-depth working knowledge of CNAFINST 4790.2 and NAVINST 3710.1 series, along with applicable technical publications, is essential. The ability to prioritize workloads, maintain schedules, and perform other maintenance standards is required. The technician will also utilize the OOMA NALCOMIS system for documenting maintenance actions and must obtain all necessary certifications. Additionally, an in-depth knowledge of advanced electronic principles, circuit analysis, signal flow tracing, and understanding interrelationships of circuits, waveforms, and voltages is needed. A working knowledge of aircraft communications/navigation and instrument systems, schematic diagrams, engineering drawings, charts, soldering, harness/wiring, PC board, surface mount, crimping, standard test equipment, technical orders, and maintenance forms is also required. The candidate must be a U.S. citizen, able to obtain a flight line driver's license, and possess excellent English communication skills. Experience in maintaining specific T/M/S aircraft electrical generators, load banks, starters, relays, batteries, actuators, circuit breakers, switches, weapons release and control checks, and conventional weapons load team operations is necessary. The ability to obtain/maintain a secret security clearance is also a requirement.
