Careers at
Crestview Aerospace
Work that has to be right.
Everything that leaves our floor ends up on an aircraft carrying people who are counting on it. That fact shapes how the whole company works — not only the machinists and mechanics, but the people sourcing the material, writing the contracts, controlling the configuration and closing the books.
Why Work Here
People tend to stay, which tells you something.

which tells you something.
Crestview Aerospace's average employee tenure is 12 years. In manufacturing, that's a signal, not a coincidence.
What people tend to say about working here is that the work is genuinely challenging and the company will train you to do it. We build complex structures, which means the skills are real, transferable and in short supply.

Our People
Veteran workforce
19% of our workforce has served. That is not a diversity statistic — it is a reason this company treats a specification the way it does.

FAQ
Questions we get asked.
-
Crestview Aerospace hires across nine role categories at its two sites: machining, assembly and fabrication, welding, chemical processing, quality, engineering, supply chain and procurement, programs and contracts, and finance and administration. Openings regularly include both shop-floor trades and professional and corporate positions.
-
Not for many roles. Crestview Aerospace hires experienced machinists, welders and mechanics from other industries and trains them on the aerospace-specific requirements. Some positions do require prior aerospace or defense experience, and the individual listing says so where that applies.
-
It depends on the role. Crestview Aerospace hires trade positions in machining, welding, assembly, processing and inspection on skill and experience rather than a degree. Engineering, quality, finance and contracts roles typically require one. Each listing states what is required and what is preferred.
-
Crestview Aerospace operates two manufacturing sites in the United States: Crestview, Florida, at 5470 Fairchild Rd, and KEMCO Aerospace in St. Louis, Missouri, at 3366 Tree Court Industrial Blvd. Most trade, professional and corporate roles are based in Florida. Machining and inspection roles are in Missouri.
-
Yes. 19% of the Crestview Aerospace workforce has served in the military. Experience in maintenance, machining, quality, supply, contracting or administration transfers directly to roles at both the Florida and Missouri sites.
