ABOUT
At any given moment, hundreds of complex networked computer systems are operating in tandem to keep ships and submarines operating at their best. The specialized training you'll receive in this field will
pave the way to careers in IT and network support, computer programming, web development and information security.


The mission of the Navy Reserve is to provide strategic depth and deliver operational capabilities to the Navy and Marine Corps team and Joint forces, in times of peace or war. Navy Reserve Sailors seamlessly
support and actively aid that mission, all while continuing to lead their own independent lives in the civilian world. If you're interested in becoming an Aircrewman in the Navy Reserve, check out the

COMPUTER SCIENCE & INFORMATION SECURITY JOBS IN THE NAVY RESERVE


INFORMATION SYSTEMS TECHNICIAN
When a network goes down, vital information may be lost, from global satellite data to special
intelligence communications. That's why it's critical that trained Information Systems Technicians
are on board to make sure networks and related systems are designed and operated properly
and errors are fixed without any interruption to the mission.


INTELLIGENCE SPECIALIST
Collect intel on everything-data on foreign cultures, enemy movements, current weather
forecasts, etc. Then, use it to create cohesive intelligence briefings for high-ranking Navy
officials. Your deep understanding of global culture and battlespaces makes you a critical
component of mission readiness. Solid intel isn't easy to come by, but as an IS, you can save lives
by helping us stay ready for anything.


CRYPTOLOGIC TECHNICIAN INTERPRETIVE
Languages are more than just communication-they're cultural codes that need to be analyzed
and in some cases, broken. As a Cryptologic Technician Interpretive (CTI) you're more than a
linguist-you're a cultural expert, able to translate and interpret foreign communications.


CRYPTOLOGIC TECHNICIAN COLLECTION
There aren't many careers that require a security clearance before you learn about everything
you'll be doing on the job. But as a Cryptologic Technician Collection, much about your role is
classified. What we can tell you is this: you will intercept signals to provide tactical and strategic
intelligence, technical guidance and information to ships and special warfare units. Your job is to
report threats to protect the fleet and save lives. We're looking for someone whose brain is built
for solving puzzles and picking out patterns most will miss. As a CTR, a sharp mind is your
strongest asset.


CRYPTOLOGIC TECHNICIAN NETWORKS
As a Cryptologic Technician Networks, you fight in the battlespace of the future. Use state-ofthe-art technology to perform offensive and defensive cyber operations, investigating and
tracking enemies while also protecting our networks from attacks. As an expert in communication defense and forensics, you'll be expected to rise to the ever-evolving challenge
of maintaining cybersecurity.
