Jetstar is currently recruiting a Boeing Technical Specialist based at our Head Office located in Melbourne. As a Technical Specialist you will provide technical support primarily to Avionics for our Boeing 787 fleet. This position is critical to ensure the fleet remains compliant with continuing airworthiness and our aircraft perform efficiently in alignment with business requirements.

• Work with internal and external stakeholders to identify and actively manage all fleet reliability and safety threats.
• Work with MRO Technical Coordinators to support heavy maintenance checks with technical expertise and advice.
