They design, implement, monitor, and maintain manufacturing systems and equipment. Engineers in this field are involved in the creation and production of a wide range of products, from vehicles to household appliances. They often work closely with other professionals such as designers and quality control specialists, to ensure that the manufacturing process is as efficient as possible and adheres to safety standards and regulations.
