This group covers engineers with a Swedish civilingenjör degree, or equivalent expertise, who design, develop and analyse electronics, power systems, telecommunications and computer hardware. The typical route is a civilingenjör degree, roughly a master's in engineering, from a technical university, although the occupation itself is not licensed. Most work for private companies, from manufacturers and energy firms to engineering consultancies. Pay varies with experience, industry and specialisation, and with whether the role includes managerial responsibility.
