Engineering & Maintenance

Help us take to the sky safely

Turn your craft to aircraft

We rely on our engineers to deliver our superior safety standards, up to the second. They’re the trouble-shooters, glitch-fixers and tech-experts who make sure we take to the sky safely.

Solving problems. Trying new things. Getting hands-on.  Fixing and double checking. It’s all part of the day job as a Jetstar Engineer.

Hard work is rewarded at Jetstar. Pardon the pun but the sky's the limit! There is so much room for career progression and movement. I made the move from Newcastle to Melbourne and now to the Gold Coast.
