Civilian Career Paths

Career associations are editorial assessments of the cited evidence, not an official crosswalk unless the evidence explicitly says so. O*NET supplies civilian occupation information, not proof of a military match. Related experience does not confer civilian qualifications. Tasks and tools below describe civilian work, not military training.

Control and Valve Installers and Repairers, Except Mechanical Door

Maintaining valves and associated components in missile and space systems provides directly relevant experience for civilian valve repair.

How to prepare: Take a hands-on valve repair course covering the regulators or control devices used by your target employer.

What the civilian work involves
  • Disassemble and repair mechanical control devices or valves, such as regulators, thermostats, or hydrants, using power tools, hand tools, and cutting torches.
  • Record maintenance information, including test results, material usage, and repairs made.
  • Lubricate wearing surfaces of mechanical parts, using oils or other lubricants.
