Military forces rely on accurate and timely information to maintain an operational advantage over their adversaries. Communications and Information Systems Technicians (CISTECHs) are experts at providing the information and Communications Technology (ICT) used to interconnect elements of a military force and defend it from electronic and cyber threats within New Zealand and overseas.
Job on base
While on base, as a CISTECH you will provide communications support to RNZAF aircraft using ICT systems coupled with bearer systems (radio and satellite systems). You will enable information to be passed between the aircraft and ground-based IT units, and assist in implementing infrastructure, upgrades, and testing new aircraft communications systems.
Working in a team and sometimes as an individual, you will ensure CIS Systems are ready to deploy at a moment's notice and that you are trained, ready to provide and defend those operational systems.
Job on deployment
A CISTECH can expect to be one of the first to deploy. You will arrive ahead of the main force to establish vital communication with headquarters (HQ) and set up other critical information systems for use by the deploying force.
While deployed, a CISTECH will provide ICT, satellite, and radio networks to support the functions of command and control, intelligence, logistics, and communications. Once setup, you will employ your training to protect and maintain these networks from cyber threats, jamming, and interception by adversaries.
You will also work with other divisions of the military, as well as external agencies, to ensure the successful achievement of the mission.
Career progression and training
Basic Training, Job Training, and Ongoing Training are essential components of your development. Upon successful enlistment into the Air Force, you'll be posted to RNZAF Base Woodbourne (near Blenheim) for basic military training designed to prepare you for life in the Air Force.
Organisation and Administration
RNZAF Customs and Protocol
Drill and Parades
Military Field Skills and Weapon Training
First Aid, and Search and Rescue Techniques
Physical Fitness
Upon successful completion of Basic Training, you'll undergo Primary Trade Training, which will train you in various aspects of ICT and communications systems.
Salary and benefits
Careers in the Air Force are well-rewarded, as well as being diverse and exciting. As you become more experienced and move up through the ranks, gaining additional skills and qualifications, you will see your salary rise accordingly.
