How do they match: Microsystems Engineers

  • Communicate operating characteristics or performance experience to other engineers or designers for training or new product development purposes.
  • Design or develop sensors to reduce the energy or resource requirements to operate appliances, such as washing machines or dishwashing machines.
  • Design sensors or switches that require little or no power to operate for environmental monitoring or industrial metering applications.
  • Develop customer documentation, such as performance specifications, training manuals, or operating instructions.
  • Oversee operation of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) fabrication or assembly equipment, such as handling, singulation, assembly, wire-bonding, soldering, or package sealing.

  • Operate precision equipment to control microscopic or nanoscopic processes.
  • Conduct quantitative failure analyses of operational data.
  • Confer with technical personnel to prepare designs or operational plans.
  • Inspect operational processes.
  • Research industrial processes or operations.
  • Schedule operational activities.
  • Select tools, equipment, or technologies for use in operations or projects.
