Microbial sensors offer a promising alternative but suffer from limited specificity, insufficient stability, and slow kinetics. Herein, we report a programmable and printable microbial bioelectronic sensor that overcomes these bottlenecks through multi-scale chemical design. Using 2,4-dinitrotoluene as a model pollutant, we genetically reprogrammed the extracellular electron transfer pathway of <i>Shewanella oneidensis</i> by coupling specific pollutant recognition to inner-membrane cytochrome expression, thereby enabling highly specific bioelectrical detection of target pollutants. For robust deployment, these sensing microbes were encapsulated into a dual-network hydrogel sustained by reversible hydrogen bonding, ensuring structural resilience and biocompatibility. By 3D-printing the biosensor into a biomimetic fractal architecture, we minimized mass transport resistance, achieving a response time of 5 min, a 24-fold acceleration over conventional counterparts. The biosensor also exhibited a low detection limit of 6.75 µg L<sup>−1</sup> and a broad dynamic range from 20.4 to 700.0 µg L<sup>−1</sup> (<i>R</i><sup>2</sup> > 0.999).

Specifically, a self‐powered nano‐brush smart piezoelectric hybrid ceramic membrane (ATPAA <jats:sup>−</jats:sup> ‐PBM) with the pulsed pressure responsiveness and self‐cleaning capability was prepared by grafting negatively charged sodium PAA polymer chain (PAA <jats:sup>−</jats:sup> ) on the surface of BaTiO <jats:sub>3</jats:sub> (BTO) piezoelectric ceramic membrane. Under the pulsed pressure, alternating piezoelectric charges induced reversible conformational oscillations of the self‐powered nano‐brushes, promoting the detachment of the foulant layer by the flowing water and thereby enabling in situ self‐cleaning. Meanwhile, the grafted PAA <jats:sup>−</jats:sup> nano‐brushes strongly associated with water molecules to establish a 462 nm‐thick hydration layer, while generating electrostatic repulsion toward humic acid (HA), jointly preventing foulant adhesion and enabling nearly complete rejection. The membrane exhibited outstanding retention, anti‐fouling ability, and remarkable flux retention ratio (FRR = 92.3%, 10 d) during a long‐term filtration process. Consequently, a novel excellent rejection and anti‐fouling mechanism of “self‐powered nano‐brush dynamic oscillation self‐cleaning & hydration barrier” was proposed.
