Biomedical Equipment Technician

Also known as biomedical engineering technicians, biomedical equipment repair technicians specialize in installing and maintaining such medical equipment as ultrasound devices, X-rays, patient monitors, and operating tables. In addition to repairing and replacing parts, technicians test and calibrate equipment on a regular basis. They also stay up to date on the latest technological advances.

Most biomedical equipment repair technicians work full-time, primarily during the day. Some evening and weekend hours might be required for emergency repairs. Technicians typically travel to the location of medical equipment machines, which might expose them to illnesses found in hospitals and/or doctors' offices.
