[[Image:Schwicker2.jpg|thumb|left|x176px|Chief Engineer Schwicker]]Johan began his post-Academy career as a Science officer aboard the USS Gettysburg. There, he soon distinguished himself as a capable scientist. However, he was not content to limit his experience to mere postulation, theorization, and discovery. Increasingly, he ever desired to explore invention, integration, and engineering. Secularly, he embarked on a detailed Reverse Engineering course offered by the Academy through correspondence. His foundation in Science was of immeasurable benefit to him, as even while only about halfway through the course, as a second-year Reverse Engineering student, he demonstrated the knowledge and ability that one might expect from a capable engineer. Ever eager to further his academic pursuit in that field, and especially to satisfy his lust for practical experience in that field, he relentlessly pursued opportunity to transfer to the Gettysburg’s Engineering Department, with success.

Despite his success as a clever scientist and a capable engineer, however, Johan’s uncontrolled thirst for knowledge of the most complex systems remained unsatisfied. It was not until he attempted to apply his scientific knowledge to the task of engineering a living <span style="background-color: black; color: black">*********</span> pathogen, capable of quickly generating a <span style="background-color: black; color: black">********</span> sickness among <span style="background-color: black; color: black">*******Romulan populations,</span> populations, at the controversial request of <span style="background-color: black; color: black">***</span> <span style="background-color: black; color: black">*********</span> <span style="background-color: black; color: black">*******</span> <span style="background-color: black; color: black">*******</span> <span style="background-color: black; color: black">******one Commodore Derrick Ulysses Grant,</span> that he began to realize that the most complex and, therefore, the most challenging systems are, in fact, living ones. Again, Johan researched a change in his career path, temporarily leaving his assignment to the Gettysburg, and feverishly studied health care, medicine, and surgery at the University of Rigel-5, host to a set of subsidiary medical courses sponsored by Star Fleet Medical School. While his knowledge in the theoretical fields of science and the practical fields of engineering proved invaluable there, especially in learning the mechanics behind living things both Human and alien, the “crash-courses” only barely qualified him as a medical doctor. Nevertheless, with his newly earned title, Johan, somewhat with the enthusiasm of a man with his own private agenda, gleefully pursues the bettering of his medical abilities with live patients in a real sickbay. Apparently, based on a carefully calculated risk assessment of Johan’s ability to treat casualties in a crisis, Star Fleet felt it best, in the interests of their respective crews, to reassign Doctor Schwicker from the Gettysburg, a battle cruiser, to the Pegasus, a light cruiser.
