The Biomedical Equipment Technician (BMET) is responsible for the inspection, maintenance, calibration, and repair of medical equipment and systems used in patient care. This role ensures that all clinical devices are safe, effective, and compliant with industry regulations and hospital policies. The BMET works under minimal supervision and collaborates closely with clinical staff, vendors, and other technicians to support healthcare delivery.

Key Responsibilities :

  • Inspect, test, troubleshoot, and repair biomedical equipment such as patient monitors, defibrillators, infusion pumps, ventilators, electrosurgical units, and imaging systems.

  • Maintain accurate records of equipment performance, service history, and work orders using a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS).
  • Respond to equipment-related service calls in a timely manner to minimize clinical downtime.
  • Assist with incoming equipment inspections, acceptance testing, and installation.
  • Ensure proper inventory and availability of replacement parts and tools.
  • Participate in equipment upgrades, recalls, and safety alerts.
  • Collaborate with clinical and nursing staff to provide equipment education and support.
  • Comply with all hospital safety protocols, infection control policies, and OSHA standards.
  • Participate in on-call rotation and emergency response, as needed.

Qualifications :

Education & Certification :

  • Associate's degree in Biomedical Equipment Technology, Electronics, or related technical field required.
  • CBET (Certified Biomedical Equipment Technician) preferred but not required.
  • Experience :

  • 1-3 years of experience in a hospital or healthcare environment preferred.
  • Experience working with a variety of general biomedical equipment required; specialized equipment (e.g., imaging, surgical robotics) is a plus.
  • Skills :

  • Strong understanding of electronics, mechanics, and medical terminology.
  • Proficient with test equipment (e.g., multimeters, simulators, analyzers).
  • Ability to read schematics, service manuals, and technical documentation.
  • Excellent troubleshooting, organizational, and customer service skills.
  • Familiarity with state and federal healthcare regulations.
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, patient-care environment.
  • Working Conditions :

  • Work is performed in patient care areas, operating rooms, laboratories, and equipment storage spaces.
  • May involve lifting equipment up to 50 lbs, standing for long periods, and working in confined spaces.
  • Occasional travel between hospital sites (if part of a larger system).
  • Houston's oldest hospital is GROWING!
