Avionics Install Technician - TKI

At Omni Aircraft Maintenance, we built our reputation one aircraft at a time. We are a FAA Part 145 Repair Station with deep expertise across the business jet fleet — and we are growing. Our avionics team is at the center of that growth: the skilled hands behind every installation, modification, and panel rework that leaves our floor. If precision wiring, systems troubleshooting, and exacting avionics work is your craft, we want to talk.

■ What You Can Expect

As our Avionics Install Technician at McKinney National Airport (TKI), you will perform avionics installations on a variety of business jet airframes — routing and fabricating wire harnesses, installing cannon plugs and avionics components, and executing complete panel reworks.
