Are you someone who thrives on precision, craftsmanship, and the challenge of working with advanced materials? If so, this role may be your perfect fit. We’re looking for a meticulous and mechanically minded individual who enjoys fabricating and repairing complex composite and metal bonded assemblies. You’ll be working with intricate components that demand exact alignment in fixtures that may lack standard stops or locators, and where tight tolerances are critical to success.

If you take pride in building things that truly fit together and enjoy the satisfaction of clean, accurate work, this is the kind of challenge you’ll love.

At ST Engineering MRAS, our employees have amazing opportunities to work on advanced technologies and systems that support thousands of customers and millions of people worldwide every day. From the first flight across the Pacific Ocean to developing highly complex structures for the most popular aircraft in the world, we have come a long way always with a can‑do approach to problem solving while delighting customers with our high say‑do ratio.

We are looking for people with innovative ideas and the drive to help us grow into the future.

A pioneer in the production and assembly of complex aerostructures including aircraft and rocket components, engine nacelle systems, thrust reversers and advanced composite products, we apply the latest digital technologies and automation in composite design and manufacturing that are second to none. At ST Engineering MRAS, we are also rapidly augmenting our maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) capabilities leveraging the company’s expanded aircraft nacelle portfolio as well as its materials and processing expertise.
