How do they match: Microsystems Engineers

  • Conduct acceptance tests, vendor-qualification protocols, surveys, audits, corrective-action reviews, or performance monitoring of incoming materials or components to ensure conformance to specifications.
  • Conduct analyses addressing issues such as failure, reliability, or yield improvement.
  • Conduct experimental or virtual studies to investigate characteristics and processing principles of potential 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.
  • Conduct or oversee the conduct of prototype development or microfabrication activities to ensure compliance to specifications and promote effective production processes.
  • Communicate operating characteristics or performance experience to other engineers or designers for training or new product development purposes.
  • Develop customer documentation, such as performance specifications, training manuals, or operating instructions.

  • Train personnel on proper operational procedures.
  • Conduct quantitative failure analyses of operational data.
  • Conduct validation tests of equipment or processes.
