avionics engineers totally, while airframe and engine engineers are only eligible for temporary visas without any access to residency
There is a glut of out of work LAME's in the airline field since airlines have been sending heavy maintenance overseas. Seems to be jobs in the GA field if you are willing to travel to regional areas. Avionics engineers are rare, Mech engineers are easy to find. So it baffles me why they made this choice
