Mechatronic engineers design and maintain machinery with electronic and computer control systems, such as aircraft, robots, motor vehicles, cameras, power generators and mining and chemical plant machinery.

Minerals process engineers transform low-value impure minerals, recycled materials and by-products of other processing operations into commercially valuable products.

Mining engineers plan and direct the engineering aspects of extracting mineral, petroleum and gas resources from the earth.

Petroleum engineers plan and manage the recovery of oil and gas from petroleum reservoirs. The petroleum engineering profession offers a number of specialisations, with the major areas including drilling engineering, formation evaluation, production engineering and reservoir engineering.

Platform engineering is a critical role in the tech industry that involves designing, building and maintaining the infrastructure that powers modern digital services. A platform engineer is responsible for creating and supporting the underlying systems that allow software applications to run smoothly and efficiently. In Australia, the demand for platform engineers is growing as more and more businesses embrace digital transformation.

Production or plant engineers plan, direct and coordinate manufacturing activities in industrial plants, including the design, construction, modification, performance and maintenance of equipment and machinery.

Robotics engineers design, build, test and repair robots and robotic systems.

Site reliability engineering focuses on ensuring the reliability, scalability and efficiency of complex computer systems.

Telecommunications engineers plan, design, construct and install complex telecommunications networks and associated broadcasting equipment.

AI Specialists use and create computer systems that collect information, employ decision-making and then act on it to solve issues across businesses.

Carpenters construct, erect, install, finish and repair wooden and metal structures and fixtures on residential and commercial buildings. They may also carry out work on large concrete, steel and timber structures such as bridges, dams, power stations and civil engineering projects.

Computer systems auditors are involved in the design and monitoring of control systems, which ensure the accuracy and security of data. They also review an organisation's computing environment and the use of their computer facilities. Computer systems auditors provide managers with expert opinions about the reliability of results and operations of computer systems. It is essential that computer systems auditors understand both the accounting and information technology implications of computer systems.

Construction managers are responsible for organising, overseeing and coordinating the construction of building projects and the resources involved in the process.

Coxswains manage the operation of small commercial marine vessels, such as fishing boats, ferries, water taxis, jet boats, yachts, catamarans and tourist craft.

Data Scientists investigate large datasets and interpret them to make insights and recommendations for clients or employers that is easy to understand and important for future practice.
