12B Combat Engineer - Construction and Engineering Specialist

National Guard OMD

Job Description

Combat Engineers are essential to mission success by assisting their fellow Soldiers in tackling unpredictable environments. As a member of an Army National Guard Combat Engineer team, you'll design and build bridges, roadways, secure perimeters, and tactical firing systems, as well as detect and safely neutralize mines and other dangers to safeguard your team and repel the enemy.

Job Duties

• Constructing wire obstacles
• Fixed bridge building
• Basic urban operations
• Operating heavy equipment

• Ability to perform strenuous physical activities over long periods of time
• Interest in engineering
• Enjoy working outdoors

Through your training, you will develop the skills and experience to enjoy a civilian career in construction, building inspection, and building engineering.
