- Be an expert: Provide advanced technical support to customers and the internal team to assess project feasibility and resolve complex cases
- Mentor the technical team: Support supervisors and guide junior technicians in applying internal procedures and best maintenance practices
What We're Looking For
- Education: A college diploma (DEC) in aircraft maintenance, mechanical engineering, or equivalent training.
- Experience: A minimum of 10 years of experience in turbine engine maintenance (knowledge of Pratt & Whitney engines is highly preferred).
- Technical skills: In-depth knowledge of international regulatory standards and the ability to interpret complex technical documentation.
- Languages: Fluency in both French and English (spoken and written) is essential for technical discussions and reporting.
