Look into doing work with the companies that design those systems. You can potentially help develop the new tools and teach the navy to use them

Anything in electronics, audio analysis or engineering, etc.
Sonar techs are mainly "twidgets" people who work on electronic gear. They use their ears some of the time, but these days, most of the data are processed by computer and displayed on their screens, hence my suggestion.
This applies for submarine ST's as well...

As an electronics oriented person with experience in transmission & reception I would think that getting an FCC Commercial License with Radar endorsement might not be very hard. If you'd like to try surface ships, Merchant Mariners isn't a bad way to continue travels...

STS sonar technician submarines STG is the surface equivalent, If you have done any time in the shipyard or at an Intermediate Maintenance Facility you can often get a job repairing sonar equipment as a civilian the continuity and skills that a worker who isn't constantly being transferred brings to a shop cannot be overvalued.
