Fractional jet ownership and leasing with global fleet operations
Flexjet operates a fractional aircraft ownership and leasing business serving high-net-worth individuals and corporate clients. The tech stack reflects a business scaling beyond aviation basics—Oracle ERP, MongoDB, AWS, and heavy reliance on Microsoft Power Suite (Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI) signal an org migrating core operations onto modern cloud infrastructure. Active projects span crew scheduling optimization, cross-regional fleet coordination, and ERP implementation, while pain points cluster around payroll accuracy, billing timeliness, and crew logistics—the operational complexity of managing distributed aircraft and crew assignments across multiple regions.
Notable leadership hires: Crew Chief, Sales Director
Flexjet provides fractional ownership and lease programs for business jets, competing on fleet age (average six years), safety certifications (FAA Diamond Awards, Air Charter Safety Foundation audit standard), and cabin customization (40+ interior designs). The company operates a global fleet across multiple aircraft types and maintains crew bases and operations in the United States, Europe (Italy, United Kingdom, Ireland, Malta), and South America (Peru), supported by dedicated crew scheduling and fleet optimization teams. The hiring mix is weighted toward operations (74 roles) relative to engineering (33), reflecting a capital-intensive, service-delivery–driven business model. Current initiatives center on ERP consolidation, training program formalization, and operational efficiency—crew positioning, scheduling, and utilization are persistent internal friction points.
Oracle (ERP core), SQL Server, MongoDB, AWS cloud, Microsoft 365 suite (Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI, SharePoint), Node.js, C#, TypeScript, and testing frameworks (Selenium, Cypress, Playwright). Currently adopting Power Fx and expanding Azure usage.
Active projects include ERP implementation, crew scheduling optimization, cross-regional fleet optimization, HRIS improvements, training curriculum certification, and development of courseware. These map directly to operational pain points: billing delays, crew positioning time, and payroll accuracy.
