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.

Electrical and Electronic Engineering Technologists and Technicians

Preventive and corrective maintenance, troubleshooting, and fault isolation on glide slope indicators, wave-off lights, and flight deck signaling systems transfer directly to electronic equipment maintenance and diagnosis.

How to prepare: Complete a hands-on electronics testing course focused on schematic reading and diagnosing component and system faults with test equipment.

What the civilian work involves
  • Modify, maintain, or repair electronics equipment or systems to ensure proper functioning.
  • Replace defective components or parts, using hand tools and precision instruments.
  • Set up and operate specialized or standard test equipment to diagnose, test, or analyze the performance of electronic components, assemblies, or systems.
