In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input.

  • Evaluate and critique borescope engine inspection data, identifying anomalies and recommending corrective actions based on FAA standards.
  • Assess composite structure inspection processes and outcomes, ensuring adherence to regulatory requirements and industry best practices.
  • Interpret approach plates and flight operations briefing materials, providing detailed feedback on navigational and operational accuracy.
  • Deliver comprehensive written and verbal insights on maintenance and inspection procedures to inform AI model development.
  • Cross-reference maintenance tasks with FAA Parts 43, 121, 135, and 145 to ensure compliance and accurate process representation.
  • Contribute subject matter expertise to refine and validate data sets used for AI training in aviation contexts.

You're a Good Fit If You

  • Required skills: FAA A&P Maintenance & Inspection, Borescope Engine Inspection, Aircraft Maintenance Manual & IPC Reading, Composite Structure Inspection, Approach Plate & Flight Ops Briefing
  • FAA Airframe & Powerplant (A&P) certificate, Inspection Authorization (IA), or equivalent Part 145 inspector status strongly preferred.
  • 8+ years of hands-on experience in aircraft maintenance, inspection, and regulatory compliance.
  • Expertise with borescope engine inspection and interpretation of resulting imagery and reports.
  • Proficiency in reading and interpreting maintenance manuals, IPCs, and approach plates.
  • Thorough working knowledge of FAA Parts 43, 121, 135, and 145 regulations and real-world application.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication capabilities, with a strong attention to detail.
  • Experience as a check airman or in training/mentoring roles within aviation maintenance settings is a plus.
