STS Technical Services is hiring an experienced Aircraft Sheet Metal Mechanic to support a rapidly expanding Twin Otter restoration program based at St. Lucie County International Airport in Ft. Pierce, Florida. This is a hands-on opportunity involving full aircraft tear downs, complete restorations, and total rebuilds.

This operation is built around a small, tight-knit team that values professionalism, collaboration, and long-term growth. This is not a contractor-minded environment. The team is seeking a dedicated aviation professional who wants to become part of the organization and grow alongside the program.

All positions begin as open-ended contract roles, with a clear path to direct hire based on performance and program needs.

Key Responsibilities

  • Perform complete aircraft tear downs, restorations, and rebuilds on Twin Otter aircraft
  • Fabricate, repair, and install sheet metal components in accordance with approved data
  • Read and interpret blueprints, engineering drawings, and structural repair manuals
  • Perform precision drilling, riveting, forming, and fitting of aircraft structures
  • Ensure all work complies with FAA regulations and company quality standards
  • Maintain accurate documentation of completed work
  • Collaborate closely with team members in a fast-paced, hands-on environment

Required Experience And Qualifications

  • Minimum of 5 years of aircraft sheet metal experience
  • Strong fabrication experience is required
  • Prior MRO experience is preferred
  • Experience working on complete aircraft restorations or heavy maintenance strongly desired
  • Ability to work independently and take ownership of assigned tasks
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality workmanship

What Makes This Opportunity Unique

  • Work on highly specialized Twin Otter restoration and rebuild projects
  • Be part of a small but growing team where individual contributions have clear impact
  • Hands-on environment with direct involvement in full aircraft life-cycle work
  • Long-term growth potential as the restoration program expands

Housing Assistance

The company owns several townhomes in a nearby gated community.

Housing assistance may be available on a case-by-case basis for non-local candidates or those requiring relocation support. Details will be discussed during the interview process.
