I am a biological engineering graduate in health biology, and I am considering BME masters. What do you think?

Frankly, I feel like the market for biotech engineering isn't that amazing in comparison with BME.
Pharmaceuticals pay bioengineers a very bad salary and I feel like my education aligns more with being an application engineer at a lab equipment manufacturer.
But still it takes at least a year of looking around to find this kind of position.
Therefore, I am considering a second masters in BME instrumentation in order to become a hybrid profile: application/service engineer and I think from examining market trends this kind of combined profile is exponentially better than the sum of the two masters. What do you think?

My biological engineering degree is mostly health biotech and purification techniques with reglementation it can get me a job in pharma or technico-commercial medical devices distribution.
My degree is a part of an engineering background, so I did my basic engineering classes point mecanics, optics, fluid mecanics, chemistry, 23 hours of detector Instrumentation, 23 hours of signal treatment... I did as well 45 hours of medical imagery.
Finding a job as an application specialist isn't very evident as most companies in my country would prefer hiring a biomed instrumentation engineering specialist and avoid application as much as possible, LOL.
But I thought if I did masters in Biomedical instrumentation + my application background this will probably get me a very good a job.
What do you think? Become a service + application engineer?
