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.
Preferred Qualifications

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.
