What are the responsibilities and job description for the AOG Aircraft Maintenance Technician - TKI position at Omni Aircraft Maintenance?
At Omni Aircraft Maintenance, we built our reputation one aircraft at a time. Since 1983, operators across business aviation have trusted us to keep their aircraft flying safely and on schedule. We are an FAA Part 145 Repair Station with more than 40 years of experience maintaining business jet aircraft. Our AOG technicians are the extension of that promise in the field: dispatched when it matters most, performing with precision under pressure, and representing Omni at every aircraft-side interaction. If that is the kind of work you were built for, we want to talk.
