English term or phrase: instrument technician
Auf einer Geburtsurkunde wird als Beruf des Vaters instrument technician angegeben.
Ich werde die Originalbezeichnung lassen und dazu "etwa Werkzeugmechaniker" schreiben. Wäre das richtig?

German translation:Messtechniker / Meß- und Regelmonteur
Explanation:

Most instrumentation technicians work for manufacturing plants, making sure that equipment is working properly, safely, and efficiently. As an instrumentation technician, you will test, calibrate, install, repair, and inspect manufacturing equipment and monitoring devices. You'll also perform general maintenance on the equipment and design new measuring and recording equipment. You may collect environmental data and monitor the pollution output of the plant. On a typical day, you will work with scientific and analytic computer software, calculators, voltage and current meters, and electronic probes to diagnose faults in circuitry.

Messtechniker erfassen über Geräte und Messmethoden physikalische Größen wie Druck, Länge, Masse, Strom, Temperatur oder Zeit. Die so gewonnenen Erkenntnisse, verifizieren sie und vergleichen sie gegebenenfalls mit bisherigen Ergebnissen.

Explanation:
Instrument mechanics in engineering are tradesmen who specialize in installing, troubleshooting, and repairing instrumentation, automation and control systems. The term instrument mechanic came about because it was a combination of light mechanical and specialised instrumentation skills. The term is still is used in certain industries; predominantly in industrial process control.

Instrumentation is a collective term for measuring instruments that are used for indicating, measuring and recording physical quantities. The term has its origins in the art and science of scientific instrument-making.
