    He was just a mycology engineer, not the chief engineer. I honestly can’t remember if we ever see main engineering on Discovery. They mostly work in the Spore Drive engine room. But that was Discovery’s schtick, that it wasn’t the “main” crew that were the stars originally.

      But that link literally says he’s the chief engineer. I’ve never actually watched discovery though.

        He eventually became chief engineer when Burnham was made captain. He started out just as a regular crew member. None of the main cast were in special positions at the beginning. That was one of the main complaints, because we never learn much about the bridge officers.

        Yeah man, you just can’t argue with some people.
