Search Aerospace Jobs & Positions

The Aerospace Industry is composed of manufacturers who develop spacecraft and military and commercial aircraft, tanks, missiles, and other weapon related equipment. Since the first powered flight in 1903, the Aerospace Industry has grown drastically. To date, the Aerospace Industry in the U.S. accounted for nearly $909 billion in sales. Top companies include Boeing, Airbus, and United Technologies.

What are common job types in the Aerospace industry?

Project/Program Manager - Project/Program Managers oversee engineering and technical design of aerospace engineering projects, such as airplane or rocket components. They manage communication and coordination among different types of engineers working on a project, and supervise project schedules, budgets, and communications with stakeholders.

Engineer - Engineers design spacecraft, aircraft, missiles and weapons systems. They develop new technologies for use in spacecraft, aviation and defense systems, and design, assemble and test aircraft and aerospace products.

Business Development Manager - Business Development Managers are responsible for helping grow businesses by finding new opportunities, researching leads, establishing relationships with potential clients and arranging appointments for sales executives.

Field Service - Field Service roles provide direction and assistance to meet assigned objectives. They work within defined parameters to make decisions, apply concepts to issues of moderate complexity, and resolve issues through immediate action or short-term planning.

Maintenance Technician - Maintenance Technicians are held responsible for the safety of the crew and passengers as well as the success of each flight. Duties typically include: replacing and repairing of aircraft parts, and diagnosis and repair of mechanical and electrical problems.

Contract Administrator - Contract Administrators develop, negotiate and evaluate company contracts on behalf of an organization. They are charged with ensuring that both parties are complicit with the terms of the contract, as well as ensuring that all contracts abide by local and federal laws.

Technical Sales - Technical Sales roles are often the key point of contact for clients, answering queries, providing technical advice and demonstrating how to use new products and/or services. They provide pre-sales and post-sales support, negotiate contracts, terms and conditions, and review cost and sales performance.

Test Technician - Test Technicians conduct tests on products and equipment. They then record data from those tests and give that data to the product and engineering teams.

Electrician - Electricians install and repair electrical wiring in an aircraft, including cutting and stripping wire and insulating electrical connections. They also service the electrical components. In addition, Electricians run tests on equipment to locate issues and install needed replacement parts.

What are the highest paying Aerospace jobs?

Engineers on average earn the highest salary in the Aerospace Industry, making about $115K per year, depending on location. Operation Technicians earn on average $67K per year.

What Aerospace jobs are in demand?

Equipment Mechanics and Technicians are in high demand in the Aerospace Industry, and will see the most growth over other occupations, with a gain of 5%. The growth is dependent on the replacement of workers leaving the occupation. Most non-engineering Aerospace Industry positions will average faster than average growth between 2019 and 2029.

Why should one start a career in the Aerospace industry?
