You can do this through Tour of Duty, unfortunately it only works on a government computer so you can't access it from your personal computer even if you have a CAC reader.

Additionally you can reach out to a deploying unit in your State and request to be attached as excess.

With both options you should get with your first line leader and let them know your intentions. When I jumped on as excess for my deployment I had to get approval through my BN CSM before the commander would sign off on transferring me to another unit.

I recommend it, especially as a PFC. You'll get a lot of experience, make connections, and even get some chest candy if that's your thing.

Places you can look without a government computer are:

PFI a program run by DFAS for ADOS orders, they usually will have security jobs at Depots on here you would qualify for.

Reserve and guard unit vacancy and mob announcements. Some of these are just places to drill but others will be transfers to prepare for mobilization.
