How do they match: Microsystems Engineers

  • Conduct experimental or virtual studies to investigate characteristics and processing principles of potential microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology.
  • Consider environmental issues when proposing product designs involving microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology.
  • Design sensors or switches that require little or no power to operate for environmental monitoring or industrial metering applications.
  • Plan or schedule engineering research or development projects involving microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology.
  • Propose product designs involving microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology, considering market data or customer requirements.
  • 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.

  • Research engineering applications of emerging technologies.
  • Select tools, equipment, or technologies for use in operations or projects.
