Your duties will include installing and repairing circuits and wiring, calibrating and aligning equipment components, and stringing overhead cables between utility poles.

Other duties include repairing systems, performing equipment tests, and performing preventive maintenance checks and services on equipment.

Advanced Radio and Communications Security Repairers take on more challenging projects, including training and supervising other Soldiers, testing equipment, performing complex repairs, and ensuring that the National Security Agency-approved components are used in communication security / controlled cryptographic item repairs.

Helpful Skills

Strong attention to detail
