Maintenance and Repair Workers, General

Supervising scheduled AWSE maintenance, fault isolation, and component replacement transfers directly to civilian equipment upkeep and malfunction diagnosis.

How to prepare: Build a maintenance portfolio showing fault-isolation decisions, scheduled servicing, and component replacements, distinguishing work you performed from work you supervised.

What the civilian work involves
  • Perform routine maintenance, such as inspecting drives, motors, or belts, checking fluid levels, replacing filters, or doing other preventive maintenance actions.
  • Inspect, operate, or test machinery or equipment to diagnose machine malfunctions.
  • Repair machines, equipment, or structures, using tools such as hammers, hoists, saws, drills, wrenches, or equipment such as precision measuring instruments or electrical or electronic testing devices.
