microsystem engineering technician
Microsystem engineering technicians collaborate with micro-system engineers in the development of microsystems or microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) devices, which can be integrated in mechanical, optical, acoustic, and electronic products. Microsystem engineering technicians are responsible for building, testing, and maintaining the microsystems.
Also called: micro-system engineering technician, microelectromechanical systems technologist, MEMS technologist, microsystem engineering assistant, microsystem technologist, MEMS technician, technician in microsystems, microelectromechanical systems technician
