Senior Aviation Maintenance Technician

Jan 2021 - now

  • As workstream lead, troubleshot aircraft and engine discrepancies using manuals, fault history, test equipment, and controlled isolation steps; identified the verified fault path before parts were replaced or systems released.
  • With responsibility for the review standard, performed scheduled and corrective maintenance with tool control, parts traceability, torque values, and independent inspections; returned work only after the required technical and quality criteria were signed off.
  • As workstream lead, completed airworthiness and conformity inspections against configuration, modification, and flight-test requirements; made every acceptance decision traceable to the inspected aircraft state and requirement.
  • Followed the current maintenance manual to isolate a system fault, recorded part and tool traceability, and completed the required inspection and release documentation with authorized personnel.
  • Owned the assigned aircraft-maintenance inspection checklist under licensed supervision using approved technical data, resolved an incomplete airframe record and completed the quality handoff.
  • Built a troubleshooting reference using calibrated tools and avionics test results, reduced repeat record queries by 21% while reserving airworthiness release for authorized staff.

Aviation Maintenance Technician

Mar 2016 - Dec 2020

  • Documented nonconforming parts, tools, software, and assemblies with containment, disposition, and verification status; aligned review standards and decision owners across the participating teams. Working with partner teams, prevented unresolved configuration issues from reaching flight preparation.
  • Reconciled the job card with the applicable manual revision, checked the installed part’s traceability, and reported an unresolved discrepancy to the authorized inspector before release.
  • Confirmed the aircraft configuration and applicable service information before preparing a maintenance task, checked tool and part availability, and recorded the work already completed so the next shift could resume at the correct step.

Cross-functional project lead

Mar 2023 - Jul 2023

  • Completed airworthiness and conformity inspections against configuration, modification, and flight-test requirements; aligned review standards and decision owners across the participating teams
  • Used training documents and a simulated aircraft discrepancy to build a job-card checklist; linked inspection steps to the applicable manual revision and separated observed faults from untested hypotheses.
  • Prepared part-traceability and tool-accountability records for the exercise, checked an intentionally missing sign-off, and labeled the completed work as training rather than an airworthiness release.
  • Owned the supervised training-record check using approved maintenance references, resolved a missing tool-return entry and completed the exercise without claiming airworthiness release.
