Production Technician (Wet Lay-Up, MAV/UAV)

What you will do

• Wet lay-up: at the mould: fabrics, epoxy, vacuum bagging, oven cure and surface preparation.
• Material prep: in the composite shop, including cutting reinforcement and running the vacuum equipment.
• Airframe assembly: MAV/UAV from drawings: fuselage, wing, empennage, bonding and mechanical fit-out. Strong experience in either lay-up or assembly is enough.
• Checks: parts and assemblies, torque-controlled joints where the build needs them, and the site's health and safety rules.
• Feedback: to the designers, plus short records of the process.

What we expect

• Experience: proven time in wet lay-up, or in MAV/UAV or light-aircraft assembly.
• Self-directed: you take a part or an assembly and run with it, with occasional guidance rather than daily supervision.
• Drawings: you read drawings and material sheets. Czech is the language with the team. English is a plus.
• Care: you own the quality of an aerospace part.

What we offer

• A defence UAV programme with a clear technical scope and funding already in place
• On-site work in Moravská Třebová (Sušice 170). A piston-engine test cell is on the same site. This role is composites and airframe assembly, not engine work
• Long-term cooperation and pay according to experience

Benefits: 5 weeks of vacation and 3 sick days, leisure benefit (Pluxee, MultiSport), meal allowance of 129 CZK. All benefits
