My name is Alex and I am an entry level engineer. I work for Weber Eliot Engineers in Eugene,
Oregon and I'm going to talk about what it is an entry level engineer does. An entry
level engineer is generally they do what an engineer does but they don't go into as much
depth at first obviously. They do a lot more of the drafting part of engineering. More
experienced engineers usually do more of the interesting calculations. They set up more
of the real world problems. They make a lot of judgment calls that they are uniquely qualified
to make and the entry level people tend to do more drafting, more routine things that
less experienced people are able to do. They might do some calculations, but the simpler
ones. They'll probably do more basic assignments with fewer steps and less in depth and in
general they won't see as far into the project as an engineer who has seen entire projects
from start to finish. Usually as an entry level engineer you'll just take and see little
snapshots of what is going on. Then they basically work doing the lower level calculations, engineering
tasks, and assist the other engineers.
