flight inspections. Overall, you will become well versed with the functionality of several
subsystems, but more importantly how they collaborate in a combined systems test.

As a Flight Acceptance Technician, you will be a full systems integrator and a quality inspector 
of both hardware and software and will aid in troubleshooting efforts to identify inconsistencies
and issues that may arise. You will work closely with several engineering teams and provide
quality feedback and assist in acquiring solutions. You will adhere to FOD and ESD company
