How do they match: Calibration Technologists and Technicians

  • Execute or adapt procedures and techniques for calibrating measurement devices, by applying knowledge of measurement science, mathematics, physics, chemistry, and electronics, sometimes under the direction of engineering staff. Determine measurement standard suitability for calibrating measurement devices. May perform preventive maintenance on equipment. May perform corrective actions to address identified calibration problems.

  • Conduct calibration tests to determine performance or reliability of mechanical, structural, or electromechanical equipment.

  • Test performance of electrical, electronic, mechanical, or integrated systems or equipment.
