Definition
机械师 refers to a person whose job involves operating, repairing, or maintaining machinery — a mechanic or machinist. It is more specific than 工程师 ('engineer'), which typically implies a higher-level design or management role. Use 机械师 when talking about hands-on mechanical work, such as in factories, auto repair shops, or aircraft maintenance.
