The list — pulled from U.S. News’ “Best Jobs” ranking — features lesser-known positions with good salaries, low unemployment rates, travel opportunities or “other great benefits,” per the publication. It pulled salary and job growth data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

5. Medical equipment repairer
7. Oral and maxillofacial surgeon
