Civilian Career Paths

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.

Maintenance and Repair Workers, General

Scheduled maintenance, fault isolation, and component replacement on armament weapons support equipment transfer directly to equipment-focused maintenance and repair work.

How to prepare: Prepare resume examples of equipment faults you isolated and components you replaced, then target maintenance openings centered on machinery rather than building trades.

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.
