technical experts
People with know-how
Technical experts are people with specialized knowledge in a particular field, especially scientific, engineering, or technological domains.
The phrase often appears in news reports and policy discussions where authorities consult those with deep subject-matter expertise: Technical experts say the bridge is structurally sound.
Distinguished from generalists or administrators, technical experts possess hands-on proficiency rather than merely theoretical understanding.
