How do they match: Microsystems Engineers

  • Plan or schedule engineering research or development projects involving microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology.
  • Conduct harsh environmental testing, accelerated aging, device characterization, or field trials to validate devices, using inspection tools, testing protocols, peripheral instrumentation, or modeling and simulation software.
  • Design or develop energy products using nanomaterials or nanoprocesses, such as micro-nano machining.
  • Investigate characteristics such as cost, performance, or process capability of potential microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) device designs, using simulation or modeling software.
  • Research or develop emerging microelectromechanical (MEMS) systems to convert nontraditional energy sources into power, such as ambient energy harvesters that convert environmental vibrations into usable energy.
  • Validate fabrication processes for microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), using statistical process control implementation, virtual process simulations, data mining, or life testing.

  • Confer with technical personnel to prepare designs or operational plans.
  • Select tools, equipment, or technologies for use in operations or projects.
