Research and develop products - for example, mechanical hearts if working in the medical industry improve production processes - such as those in large oil refineries, or services within buildings design and implement cost-effective equipment modifications to help improve safety and reliabilitydevelop a project specification with colleagues, often including those from other engineering disciplinesdevelop and use new materials and technologiesmanage people, projects and resources - this will depend on your roledevelop, test and evaluate theoretical designsdiscuss and solve complex problems with manufacturing departments, sub-contractors, suppliers and customers make sure a product can be made reliably and will perform consistently in specified operating environments manage projects using engineering.
