Gas Turbine Fuel Systems Division (GTFSD) About Parker Aerospace Parker Aerospace, part of Parker-Hannifin Corporation, develops and supports engineered aerospace systems and components. Its Gas Turbine Fuel Systems Division supports engine fuel, lubrication, and thermal management applications. Interested in applying? Please highlight your aerospace or MRO inspection experience, precision measurement skills, blueprint interpretation, pump or mechanical component inspection, traceability and documentation experience, and relevant certifications. Position Overview Join Parker Aerospace in a specialized aerospace manufacturing and repair environment, inspecting lubrication pumps, scavenge pumps, and related mechanical assemblies. This role ensures that repaired, overhauled, assembled, and tested components meet applicable technical specifications, quality standards, documentation requirements, and traceability expectations. Key Responsibilities Perform final visual, dimensional, functional, and documentation inspections of aerospace mechanical components and assemblies. Interpret engineering drawings, Component Maintenance Manuals (CMMs), repair specifications, service bulletins, and work instructions. Use precision measuring instruments, including micrometers, calipers, depth gauges, indicators, and thread gauges, to verify dimensions and applicable GD&T requirements. Review functional test results, identify discrepancies, and verify completion of required inspections. Verify part and serial numbers, component configuration, job travelers, repair records, test reports, and traceability documentation. Document defects, nonconformances, workmanship issues, and documentation gaps; coordinate corrective actions with Quality, Engineering, and repair teams. Verify required inspection evidence and records before the applicable release process proceeds. Perform approval or sign-off activities only within authorized privileges. Follow established safety, quality, customer, and regulatory requirements. Required Qualifications High school diploma or equivalent. Relevant experience in aerospace inspection, mechanical quality inspection, aviation maintenance, MRO, or a comparable technical inspection environment. Working knowledge of FAA Part 145 requirements or relevant regulated maintenance, repair, or quality procedures. Ability to inspect mechanical components and interpret engineering drawings, CMMs, repair specifications, and test procedures. Experience with precision measuring instruments, dimensional verification, and applicable GD&T principles. Ability to identify wear, corrosion, damage, contamination, workmanship defects, and configuration discrepancies. Experience reviewing test results, documenting nonconformances, and maintaining accurate inspection records and traceability. Understanding of instrument calibration requirements and basic computer applications, including Microsoft Office and electronic documentation systems. Strong attention to detail, technical judgment, communication, and teamwork. Preferred Qualifications Final-inspection experience in an FAA Part 145 repair station. Experience with aerospace lubrication, scavenge, fuel, hydraulic, or other precision fluid-system pumps. Current Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) certificate or other relevant aviation maintenance credentials. Familiarity with FAA Form 8130-3 and applicable airworthiness or return-to-service documentation. Knowledge of

AS9100, AS9110, ISO

9001, or comparable quality management systems. Experience with inspection authorization, repair-station inspection stamps, e

Explain how you use engineering drawings, Component Maintenance Manuals (CMMs), repair specifications, service bulletins, and work instructions to inspect a repaired or overhauled component. Describe how you verify dimensions, configuration, and applicable acceptance criteria? Describe your experience using micrometers, calipers, depth gauges, dial indicators, bore or thread gauges, and other precision instruments. Explain how you select the correct instrument, verify its calibration status, interpret applicable tolerances or GD&T requirements, and document dimensional results? Describe how you inspect mechanical components for wear, corrosion, cracks or visible damage, contamination, thread damage, surface defects, and improper assembly. Explain how you determine whether a finding meets approved acceptance criteria or requires further evaluation? Describe your experience inspecting lubrication pumps, scavenge pumps, fuel pumps, hydraulic pumps, or comparable mechanical fluid-system components. Explain how you verify assembly condition, review applicable functional or performance test results, and identify discrepancies requiring investigation? Describe a significant dimensional, workmanship, functional, or documentation nonconformance you identified. Explain how you documented the finding, controlled or segregated the affected component as required, communicated with Quality or Engineering, and verified the authorized resolution? Describe your practical experience working under FAA Part 145 repair-station requirements or comparable regulated maintenance, repair, overhaul, or aerospace quality procedures. Explain how you ensure inspection activities, records, and any release-related documentation comply with applicable requirements and your authorized responsibilities? Describe how you verify that measuring instruments are suitable for the required tolerance and within their calibration status. If a measurement appears inconsistent or an instrument is found out of calibration, explain how you assess the results, protect potentially affected components, and escalate the issue under established procedures? A repaired aerospace pump passes its functional test, but your dimensional inspection identifies a measurement close to or outside the specified limit. Additionally, one repair record is incomplete, and production is requesting immediate release. Explain how you would validate the measurement, review the approved technical data, assess traceability and documentation gaps, coordinate the required technical disposition, and determine what must be resolved before the applicable release process can proceed? A repaired aerospace lubrication pump passes its functional test, but your final dimensional inspection reveals a measurement close to the acceptance limit. The repair documentation also contains a discrepancy in the component's serial-number traceability, and production is requesting immediate release. How would you systematically verify the measurement, evaluate the applicable CMM and engineering requirements, investigate the traceability discrepancy, assess potential quality risks, and coordinate the necessary corrective actions? Explain how you would use precision instruments, technical records, and cross-functional expertise to reach a defensible decision while ensuring the component is not released until all applicable acceptance, documentation, and authorization requirements are satisfied?
