Answer: Aerospace engineer.

Explanation:

Aerospace engineering is the primary field of engineering that deals with the development of aircraft and spacecraft.

It has two major branches which are: aeronautical engineering and astronautical engineering. Avionics engineering is quite similar to aerospace engineering but it deals with the electronics aspect of aerospace engineering.

Aerospace engineers can develop new technologies to be used in aviation, defense systems, and spacecraft. They often specialize in vast areas such as aerodynamic fluid flow, structural design, guidance, navigation, and control, airspace planning, instrumentation and communication, robotics, airspace information technology application, propulsion and combustion. They make sure projects executed meet quality standards and carry out inspection of malfunctioned or damaged products to identify sources of problems and solutions.
