Avionics Technician

Clear Star Aviation is a fast-moving FAA Part 145 repair station at Addison Airport (KADS). We work on everything from piston to turboprop to light/mid jets, and we’re looking for an Avionics Technician who’s solid, dependable, and takes pride in clean installs and clean paperwork.

What you’ll do

• Perform avionics upgrades, retrofits, wiring repairs, and harness fabrication
• Use wiring diagrams/schematics to diagnose faults efficiently (and correctly)
• Conduct operational checks, pitot/static checks as applicable, and return-to-service testing
• Document work performed clearly and accurately (logbook entries, work orders)
• Coordinate with maintenance/inspection teams to keep projects moving and customers happy
• Maintain a safe, organized work area and follow shop procedures and quality standards
  
  

What we’re looking for (3–5 years)

• 3–5 years hands-on avionics experience in GA, turboprop, and/or business aviation
• Comfortable troubleshooting (not just swapping boxes)

• Familiar with common test equipment (DMM, ramp testers, etc.) and avionics tooling
• Ability to read and interpret wiring diagrams, installation manuals, and service docs
