Hire licensed aircraft maintenance engineers.
Licensed engineers are the hardest aviation vacancy to fill and the most expensive to leave open — an AOG aircraft earns nothing. We recruit B1 and B2 engineers, airframe and avionics technicians and quality inspectors against the licence framework you actually certify under.
Licence framework, not just job title
"Aircraft engineer" means different things under EASA Part 66, under an FAA A&P, and under a national authority. We screen for the licence category and the type endorsements your certifying work requires, because a mismatch here is not a training gap — it is a compliance failure.
That extends to B1 and B2 split, to inspection authorisations, and to whether the candidate's experience was gained in an environment your quality system will recognise.
Why India has depth in this trade
India's aerospace base is wider than its airlines. Hindustan Aeronautics Limited ranked 44th in the 2024 SIPRI list of the world's top 100 defence companies and has overhauled more than 8,750 aircraft and 28,400 engines, operating 19 production divisions and 9 R&D centres.
Global manufacturers including Airbus, Boeing, GE Aviation, Honeywell Aerospace, Rolls Royce and Lockheed Martin run established Indian operations, and over a hundred Indian companies manufacture precision aircraft components — producing engineers already working to international quality and safety standards.
AOG and mobilisation support
We support urgent deployment around the clock, and mobilise complete teams where an operator is opening a line station or standing up a maintenance line rather than filling a single seat.
Visas, work permits, aviation medicals and security background checks are handled by our deployment team with your HR department once offers are signed.
What we verify before shortlisting
- Licence category — EASA Part 66 B1/B2, FAA A&P, or national equivalent
- Aircraft type endorsements held
- Issuing authority and licence validity
- Inspection or certification authorisations
- Documented maintenance experience in audit-ready form
- Security background check readiness
