Career Fair Set For October 7 For Jobs In Vero Beach, FL
It looks like there is some new activity around the Piper
Altaire jet project, as Piper Aircraft will be holding a career
fair at Century II in Wichita, KS for a number of positions open at
the company's Vero Beach, FL manufacturing campus. The event is
planned for 0800-1800 on Friday, October 7. The company says it is
looking for a number of qualified and experienced aviation
professionals for its ongoing aircraft manufacturing activity.
“Most of our open positions are for a variety of
engineering disciplines but we also have other positions that are
available,” say Piper Director of Human Resources Ellen
Sobczak, SPHR. “We ask applicants to submit their resumes
online at jobs@piper.com prior
to being interviewed by the hiring managers who will be in
Wichita.”
All of the positions being recruited are located in Vero Beach,
FL, site of Piper’s manufacturing campus and on the Atlantic
coast. Money Magazine has called Vero Beach one of the “Top
Beach Towns” and one of “The Best Places to Live on the
Coast.”
Immediate requirements are for:
- Manufacturing Engineers, All Levels
- Manufacturing Lead Engineer, Systems
- Industrial Engineers, Senior
- Stress Analysts, All Levels
- Mechanical Systems Engineer
- Sr. Engineer, ECS

“Piper employs more than 800 people who comprise a team of
dedicated, passionate individuals who care about what they do and
really make a difference,” Sobczak says. Piper provides a
dynamic and positive working environment that empowers employees to
be and do their best, along with advanced training,
state-of-the-art facilities, and industry-leading support
programs.
Many of the positions that the company seeks will be for the
company’s new single-engine Altaire business jet which is
progressing toward its maiden flight in 2012, with certification
and first customer deliveries in 2014. The Piper Altaire is an
entry-level jet with the economics of a turboprop and the cabin
size and capabilities of a much larger business jet. The
company’s backlog is sufficient for the first three years of
production.
