Fuel line technician
Citizen Air | Full-time | KCLM, Port Angeles, WA
Citizen Air is hiring a full-time fuel line technician at Fairchild International Airport (KCLM) in Port Angeles. You'll keep the ramp safe, the aircraft fueled, and the guests well looked after on both sides of every flight.
What the work looks like
Fueling aircraft is the core of the job. You'll fuel general and business aviation aircraft, marshal arrivals, and use a tug to move Cessna, Cirrus, and other light aircraft on the ramp. You'll keep the fuel truck clean and ready, complete daily fuel logs, and log fuel charges in our online scheduling software.
You'll also clean aircraft, including windows, trash service, lavatory service, and exterior wipe-downs, and greet incoming pilots, crew, and passengers as they come off the ramp.
You'll run our courtesy car program. Pickups, drop-offs, helping guests in and out of the vehicle, step stool included. The car stays fueled, clean, and ready because you keep it that way.
The shift is consistent and full-time. Off-hours fueling rotates among the line techs, so you'll need to be reachable and able to reach the airport within thirty to forty-five minutes when paged.
Pay
Starts at $20 an hour. Moves to $22 once you complete training and pass a competency review.

Work environment
The work is mostly outdoors on the ramp in all weather, with time inside the FBO and on the road in the courtesy car. You'll regularly drive fuel trucks, the courtesy car, and company golf carts across the taxiway. You'll also operate aircraft tugs to move Cessna, Cirrus, and other light aircraft.
