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.

Computer and Information Systems Managers

Leading cyber capability integration, endorsing requirements, and managing AI/ML development transfers directly to coordinating technical development teams and projects.

How to prepare: Build a civilian-facing project case study showing how you translated requirements into a development plan, coordinated technical work, and resolved integration issues.

What the civilian work involves
  • Review project plans to plan and coordinate project activity.
  • Assign and review the work of systems analysts, programmers, and other computer-related workers.
  • Meet with department heads, managers, supervisors, vendors, and others, to solicit cooperation and resolve problems.
Civilian tools and software (examples)
  • Atlassian JIRA

Computer Systems Engineers/Architects

Analyzing cyber capability requirements, integrating technologies, and ensuring interoperability provides a strong foundation for secure systems architecture and integration work.

How to prepare: Create a sample secure-system architecture that traces requirements to component choices, interfaces, and a DevSecOps implementation plan.

What the civilian work involves
  • Communicate with staff or clients to understand specific system requirements.
  • Investigate system component suitability for specified purposes, and make recommendations regarding component use.
  • Provide customers or installation teams guidelines for implementing secure systems.
Civilian tools and software (examples)
  • Amazon Web Services AWS software
  • Docker
  • Git
