The Ural Civil Aviation Plant (UZGA) has published a job advertisement for an instrument and automation fitter in Yekaterinburg. The offered salary is noteworthy — from 50 to 70 thousand rubles for a 5/2 schedule, 8 hours a day.
A specialist with 1 to 3 years of experience is required to set up equipment in the field of measurements and automation, maintain schedules and submit instruments for verification, and install them on production equipment.
For comparison, a courier for light multi-orders in the capital of the Urals is offered a salary of 170 to 236 thousand rubles per month with a flexible work schedule. One can start working even without a medical book.
Evgeny Kopelyan, Director of the Department of Industrial and Investment Policy of Yekaterinburg, noted that UZGA created 178 new jobs in 2025. The enterprise is preparing for the serial production of LMS-901 "Baikal" light aircraft, which will replace the An-2.
However, aviation expert Alexey Zakharov stated that UZGA does not have sufficient resources for large-scale production of "Baikals". He recalled that when the plant received an order for the L-410, it was limited exclusively to "re-badging".
