Job Description
Job Summary
Rogers Helicopters, Inc., a Part 135/133 certificated rotorcraft operator based in the Fresno, CA area, is seeking a full-time A&P Mechanic to help maintain our fleet, including our AS350, Bell 212, and MD530 aircraft.
Location is a priority for this role. We are looking for candidates who live within approximately a 1-hour commute of Fresno, CA (or are willing to relocate to the area). Direct experience on the AS350, Bell 212, or MD530 is a plus, but it is not required — the right candidate who lives locally and is willing to learn is a stronger fit than an experienced mechanic who does not.
About the Role
For candidates who don't yet have experience on these airframes, we offer the opportunity to train through our internship/mentorship program: newer mechanics work alongside and shadow our experienced technicians to build hands-on, type-specific experience on the job.

Troubleshoot mechanical, hydraulic, and airframe systems issues
Complete and maintain accurate maintenance records and logbook entries in accordance with FAA and company requirements
Work under the guidance of senior mechanics and Inspectors, following approved maintenance programs and manufacturer manuals
Support airworthiness and readiness of the fleet for Part 135/133 operations
Maintain a clean, safe, and organized work environment
Preferred (Not Required)
Prior experience maintaining AS350, Bell 212, and/or MD530 aircraft
Turbine helicopter maintenance experience
Familiarity with Part 135/133 maintenance operations
What We Offer
Full-time position with a family owned and operated rotorcraft operator with 60+ years in business, based in the Fresno area
Hands-on mentorship and shadowing opportunities with experienced mechanics for candidates new to these airframes
The opportunity to build long-term, type-specific experience on the AS350, Bell 212, and MD530
Requirements
Current FAA Airframe & Powerplant (A&P) certificate
Must live within approximately 1 hour of Fresno, CA, or be willing to relocate
Valid driver's license
Strong mechanical aptitude and willingness to learn new aircraft systems
Ability to work safely and follow established maintenance procedures and documentation standards
Reliable, team-oriented, and detail-focused
