Company Overview

Metrea delivers effects-as-a-service to national security partners across five domains and more than a dozen mission areas. These include airborne ISR, electronic warfare, secure communications, aerial refueling, special air missions, aerial firefighting, and advanced simulation. We own the whole stack: designing, building, and operating turnkey capabilities that give our partners decisive, asymmetric advantage against rapidly evolving threats.

Our operating model is built around three interlocking pillars. The Support Groups provide a global shared-service – spanning people, finance, platform, operations, legal, and engagement. This frees up our Core Groups, who develop and own mission capabilities end-to-end, to focus entirely on delivery. The Market Groups apply a regional lens, ensuring that our agile and adaptable capabilities remain aligned to the wicked problems that matter most to our partners across the Americas, EMEA, and Asia-Pacific.

At the heart of our model is a simple but powerful idea: be a true partner with skin in the game. Our partners need effects, not just equipment. By owning the full stack – from the lab to the field – we are able to drive a continuous cycle of innovation that keeps our partners ahead. It's a fast-moving, intellectually demanding environment where talented people are given real responsibility, work on problems that matter, and contribute to an enterprise that is growing quickly and deliberately.

Headquartered in Washington, DC, with facilities across the United States, the United Kingdom, as well as Continental Europe and Asia-Pacific.

Ensure compliance with applicable regulatory requirements (FAA, EASA, etc.) and company standards, including AD/SB tracking, inspection program compliance, and configuration control
Review and validate aircraft status, discrepancies, and maintenance actions to ensure safe and compliant return to service
Act as delegated CAM and/or Part 135 DOM when required, providing decision authority on airworthiness matters
Drive standardization and continuous improvement of CAMO processes, tools, and data integrity (AMOS, FL3XX, etc.)
Contribute to fleet-level analysis including reliability trends, repeat discrepancies, and maintenance forecasting
Support aircraft transitions, deployments, and new capability integrations from an airworthiness perspective
