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 Electronics Repairers, Commercial and Industrial Equipment

Preventive and corrective maintenance, fault isolation, and repair of MK 99 electronics and associated power equipment transfer directly to industrial electronics troubleshooting.

How to prepare: Complete a hands-on industrial electronics troubleshooting lab that includes diagnosing faults and recording repairs in a maintenance management system.

What the civilian work involves
  • Test faulty equipment to diagnose malfunctions, using test equipment or software, and applying knowledge of the functional operation of electronic units and systems.
  • Maintain equipment logs that record performance problems, repairs, calibrations, or tests.
  • Set up and test industrial equipment to ensure that it functions properly.
Civilian tools and software (examples)
  • Circuit evaluation software
  • Computerized maintenance management system CMMS

Electrical and Electronic Engineering Technologists and Technicians

ORTS-based fault isolation, equipment testing, and alignment provide a direct foundation for electronics test and repair work supporting engineering teams.

How to prepare: Complete a bench-testing lab using standard electronic test equipment and produce a report comparing measured performance with equipment specifications.

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