A gas turbine repair and overhaul technician works in a facility that has a dedicated engine overhaul, heavy maintenance or repair shop capable of disassembly, inspection and reassembly of internal engine components using engine manuals and engine-specific tooling.

Much of the technician’s work is hand work; consequently, manual dexterity and strong manual skills are important. Technicians must be able to use a wide range of hand and power tools.
