- People comfortable with a part-time schedule of 20-34 hours per week

How could this fit your current goals and plans?

It serves as a practical way to maintain professional skills in a workshop environment while enjoying the security of a federal NAF appointment.
Our take
Candidates local to JBER, Alaska, with relevant tool-handling experience should consider this role. It is less suitable for those seeking full-time hours or requiring relocation assistance.
