This role likely qualifies for a Skilled Worker visa

SOC 3113 (80% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £42,500, and Boeing United Kingdom Limited is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.

Worth checking: this could also be SOC 5234 (Aircraft maintenance and related trades, Aircraft maintenance trades; role conducts hands-on maintenance tasks), which is not on the eligible-occupation list. Ask Boeing United Kingdom Limited what the duties actually are.
