HTS Helicopters is hiring an Aviation Parts Production Manager to lead procurement and production of specialized helicopter parts (e.g. bearings, housings, gears, fittings) built to Sikorsky drawings. Many items may have very long lead times (50+ weeks), so precision, planning, and aviation expertise are essential. FAA A&P license and a background in heavy helicopters (CH‑54, CH‑53, SK‑64 or CH‑47 Airframes) required.

• Oversee the full lifecycle of special‑built parts: order initiation, supplier management, tracking, inspection, and delivery.
• Ensure parts meet Sikorsky drawing standards and all relevant aviation quality regulations.
• Anticipate delays in long lead‑time items; adjust schedules proactively to mitigate risk.
• Coordinate cross‑functionally with engineering, quality assurance, inventory/supply chain for seamless integration.
