12-Month Assignment - eVTOL Certification Program

I am currently representing a client in Hollister, CA, at the forefront of eVTOL technology, seeking a Flight Test Instrumentation Technician to support the certification of their Gen 6 all-electric aircraft.

The culture is fast-paced and mission-critical. This is a collaborative, high-performance environment where engineering precision meets the practical realities of the flight line. We are looking for a professional who thrives in a technical, hardware first atmosphere and values clear communication and data integrity.

The Role You will be a key member of the Flight Test Operations team, responsible for ensuring we capture accurate data across every test milestone.

• Systems Integration: Install, calibrate, and troubleshoot bespoke instrumentation systems on an aircraft.
• Engineering Support: Collaborate with flight test engineers to design data systems, select sensors, and develop new procedures to minimize program risk.
• Data Integrity: Manage the end-to-end instrumentation process, from building complex wire harnesses to supporting post-test data processing.

Qualifications We are looking for expertise in experimental aviation.

• Extensive experience instrumenting complex aircraft systems (strain gauges, accelerometers, VDTs, etc.).
• Proven ability to build, terminate, and install high-quality instrumentation wiring harnesses.
• Strong background in data telemetry systems and experimental flight test operations.

This is a unique opportunity to play a pivotal role in a once in a century shift in aviation. If you have the technical depth to help certify the future of flight, then apply here.
