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

ITE experience installing, testing, diagnosing, and repairing electronic warfare and electromechanical equipment directly overlaps with civilian electronics maintenance and test work.

How to prepare: Complete a civilian electronics bench project that uses a schematic and test equipment to diagnose a fault, documenting measurements, repairs, and verification results.

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.
