"needs a AME"

Post by Pat Richard »

IF you read the following, try to remember that what they ask for is "a AME".

"FULL TIME
LINE MAINTENANCE (AME)
EDMONTON, AB YEG

POSITION SUMMARY
The AME is responsible to the DOM for the co-ordination of line maintenance functions and will carry out these activities in accordance with the policies and procedures defined in both the HeavyAero’s Maintenance Policy Manual (MPM) and the applicable Maintenance Control Manual (MCM). Located in Edmonton Alberta, this opportunity involves Line Maintenance work, working nights or split shifts (TBD based on qualified candidate).

ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
The AME duties include, but are not limited to:
 Carry out maintenance, repair, modification, overhaul and alteration services of aircraft and aeronautical products listed within HeavyAero’s scope of services

Ensure ground support equipment is properly maintained and facilities are clean, safe and appropriately equipped
Monitor work performed by sub-contractors ensuring compliance with the MPM, the applicable MCM and regulatory requirements
Provide mentorship and supervision of non-licensed personnel ensuring that critical knowledge and workmanship is transferred to them
Lead by example and be a positive role model for others to follow
Perform other related activities, as necessary or as assigned by management
Actively participate in the HeavyAero Safety Management System and Quality Assurance programs
 Respect and uphold all the Company policies, procedures & performance expectations

SKILLS AND QUALIFICATIONS:
Candidates must have a positive ‘can-do’ attitude as well as proven expertise in performing maintenance and repairs in accordance with their training, regulatory requirements and company procedures. You will require knowledge of aircraft materials and parts and a strong understanding of the regulations governing their acceptance for certified aircraft and the process of quarantine action.


Minimum Requirements:
 Post-Secondary education in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering or equivalent
 Valid Aircraft Maintenance Engineer License-M2 Rating ** M1 Rating considered an asset
 One (1) to three (3) years of experience working as an Aircraft Maintenance Engineer
 Transport Canada approved type course on at least one (1) aircraft included within HeavyAero’s scope of service considered an asset
 A & P license considered an asset

Strong knowledge of:
 All related regulatory requirements
 Safety Management Systems & safe work practices

Proven success with:
Working effectively in unpredictable environments
 Performing under pressure and the ability to multitask while paying close attention to details and the surrounding environment

 Prioritizing work and organizational skills
 Ability to be a team player with a professional attitude
 Mechanical aptitude
 Exceptional communication skills, both verbal and written to ensure safe and compliant outcomes
 Understanding the effect of Human Factors in Maintenance operations

 Must be able to meet the physical tasks of the job (e.g. standing, walking, wearing a respirator, climbing, pushing, pulling, lifting, working from heights & confined spaces etc.)


So they want a good mech, a lead hand/supervisor, a production manager, QA, tech records clerk, ground equipment mech, janitor, and what ever else they see fit to throw on you. Not to mention own your ass for split shifts and as many hours as they see fit.

No pay mentioned, but I wonder if its salary. :lol: :lol: :lol:

If they get anybody it will be some newbie licensed hero looking to "be the man" for the first time in their lives, lol.

This industry will never change.

“ If they get anybody it will be some newbie licensed hero looking to "be the man" for the first time in their lives”

That is exactly how this industry keeps getting 20hrs/day 365 days / year out of staff on hours of averaging abusive crap and keeps wages in the toilet. Canada is F*cked, for anyone wondering what (hours of averaging is, look it up, it’s meant for seasonal workers and employers have to reapply annually to be allowed to do it). There are several helicopter and fixed wing operators out there that do it and I don’t know how they keep getting away with it. In fact that’s the next thread I’m going to post.
