I'm an Engineer.
Used to work in the Manufacturing industry (in a plant that made Optical Fibre near crunchy as it happens...) then moved into the Rail industry. Various management roles in and around depots maintaining trains (there's a few of the members on here that if they've ever travelled by train, will have had their lives in my hands :hurr: ;) ) and just moved into consulting.
