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.

Electronics Maintenance Supervisor

Technical leadership of electronics maintenance teams and development of maintainers and supervisors transfer directly to supervising an electronics repair shop.

How to prepare: Prepare a work portfolio showing how you developed maintenance personnel and supported equipment readiness, tailored to the electronics equipment used by a target employer.

What the civilian work involves
  • Inspect, test, and measure completed work, using devices such as hand tools or gauges to verify conformance to standards or repair requirements.
  • Inspect and monitor work areas, examine tools and equipment, and provide employee safety training to prevent, detect, and correct unsafe conditions or violations of procedures and safety rules.
  • Monitor employees' work levels and review work performance.
