Aviation Search Group has partnered with a Part 135/91 operator that is redefining fractional aircraft ownership through technology-driven operations and exceptional customer service. We're scaling rapidly over the next three years—and building an industry leading technology foundation to support 24/7 mission-critical flight operations. Our tech stack combines best-in-class SaaS platforms with custom-built solutions to deliver a seamless experience for aircraft owners and flight crews alike.
We're hiring our first dedicated Product Manager for Flight Operations Technology to own the end-to-end implementation of our flight operations platform and supporting systems. This is a foundational role: you'll define the product requirements, lead vendor implementations, and help define the operational technology backbone that powers every flight.
You'll work at the intersection of aviation operations and technology, translating complex operational workflows into system requirements and ensuring our technology investments deliver real operational value. If you've spent years in private aviation wishing the technology was better, this is your chance to help build it.
