AEROSPACE ENGINEER

While you immediately think of airplanes, aerospace engineers also work on multidisciplinary teams, engineering, design, develop and test spaceships, aircraft and missiles, and using knowledge spanning aerodynamics, avionics, propulsion, and materials science. Generally this requires years of experience, but not necessarily. This does require at least a related bachelor’s degree for entry-level positions. This position can require security clearance. This field can be either in private or public spheres, with both having a wide variety of openings.

ELECTRICAL ENGINEER

Although they work in fields closely related to computers, electrical engineers develop electrical equipment involved in generating power, including controlling and transmitting. They are required to have in-depth scientific understanding about electricity and technology in various products and services. Electrical engineering encompasses power systems, communication, and can include industrial robot control, aviation, microprocessors, and digital broadcasting.

SOFTWARE ENGINEER

Surprisingly, software engineers have to focus on more than just testing the software. There is evaluating the software, with both a variety of automated and manual tests, showing if the software is doing as it’s expected. After running the tests, software test design engineers write up reports detailing the progress and outcome. This is crucial for any company to decide how to proceed. Software test design engineers also have to collaborate with others, both with developers at the beginning of the project to offer input on the potential pros and cons of structuring a program.

Along all the steps on the way, software test design engineers make suggestions regarding changes, improvements, and alternative to try. As part of their job, experienced software test engineers get called upon to monitor the work of technicians and other testers. This position requires paying great attention to detail and at least a bachelor’s degree in software engineering, computer science, or a similar field.
