ABOUT

Electronics roles in the Navy are about so much more than just keeping the lights on. Your job will require innovative ideas and fast thinking. Your office is everywhere, and you won't always have a manual to follow. If you're ready to learn, we're ready to show you how it's done.

ELECTRONICS JOBS IN THE NAVY

ELECTRICIAN'S MATE

Whether you're installing the latest electrical panels in the cockpit or troubleshooting the electric breakers on a submarine, you are responsible for keeping the power flowing. If you're fascinated by complex circuits and schematics, a career as an EM might be your perfect match.

ELECTRONICS TECHNICIAN

You'll use radar and other complex ship systems to detect and track threats before they detect you. To throw adversaries off your ship's scent, you'll also use electronic countermeasure tricks to confuse and deflect other radars and sensors, rendering your own ship virtually invisible. It's the ultimate game of cat and mouse and our Electronics Technicians play to win.

FIRE CONTROLLMAN

Think you have what it takes to ready, aim and fire some of our deadliest weapons? If you're a Fire Controlman, you are the foundation of a ship's combat readiness, protecting the ship from inbound aircraft with the 5-inch guns, or conducting offensive strikes with the Tomahawk cruise missile weapon system. But these guns require more than just good aim.

INTERIOR COMMUNICATIONS ELECTRICIAN

In the Navy, communication can be absolutely critical to defense and safety. Because when your home is a 9,000-ton ship riding 15-foot swells and packed with ammunition, you don't just need any electrician. You need great ones to maintain alarms and secure communication networks— fast.

GAS TURBINE SYSTEMS TECHNICIAN – ELECTRICAL
