Job Description

IA Mechanic — General Aviation Piston (Full Time or Part Time / Immediate Opening) MJ Aviation Innovations, LLC. • Lees Summit, Missouri •
PERMANENT
ENHANCED Posted 05/2026 Job Description Job Summary If you're tired of being a number on a shift sheet, this isn't that job. We're a small GA piston shop where the owners know your name, your work matters, and customers respect you. What we offer is a place where good mechanics are treated like the skilled professionals they are. Doing things safely, legally, and with integrity isn't a policy here — it's just how we operate. We don't cut corners, and we don't ask our mechanics to either.
Responsibilities:
Perform and sign off annual inspections on GA piston aircraft Approve aircraft for return to service per 14 CFR Part 43.9 and 43.11 Review and approve logbook entries, work orders, and 337 forms Identify and disposition applicable ADs and service bulletins Communicate airworthiness findings clearly to aircraft owners Support and oversee A&P mechanics during inspection workloads Maintain a clean, safe, and organized work area Why our mechanics stay: Ownership that puts people first — our owners make decisions based on what's right for the team, not just the bottom line. You'll feel that difference on your first day. A shop culture worth showing up for — collaborative, low-drama, and built on mutual respect. We work hard and we look out for each other. Your work is your own — no assembly-line maintenance, no anonymous sign-offs. You own your jobs start to finish, the way it should be. Flexible scheduling — full time and part time positions available. Life happens; we get it.
Compensation:
Competitive hourly base rate commensurate with experience, plus an IA stipend. We also believe good work should be rewarded beyond the base rate — mechanics who are productive and take pride in their work will see that reflected in their pay. Requirements FAA Airframe & Powerplant (A&P) Certificate — required Active, current Inspection Authorization (IA) — required Minimum 5 years of GA piston aircraft maintenance experience post-A&P certification Extensive hands-on experience with Lycoming and/or Continental piston engines Demonstrated experience performing and signing off annual inspections per 14 CFR Part 43 Solid working knowledge of common GA airframes — Cessna, Piper, Beechcraft, Mooney, or similar Thorough understanding of ADs, service bulletins, TCDS, and FAA-approved maintenance data Experience completing logbook entries, 337 forms, and return-to-service documentation Able to work independently and manage time on billable jobs with minimal supervision Valid driver's license; able to pass background check and drug screening
Preferred Qualifications:
Engine overhaul and/or top overhaul experience on Lycoming or Continental engines Experience with major repairs, alterations, and FAA field approvals Comfortable training or mentoring less experienced A&P mechanics Job and company information not to be copied, shared, scraped, or otherwise disseminated without explicit consent of JSfirm, LLC.
