Star Trek has featured a plethora of great engineers over its long, storied history, including undersized Tellarites and science fiction's most famous Scotsman. A Starfleet vessel's Chief Engineer is usually its primary problem solver, figuring out how to make the impractical orders of their captains into reality.
9 Jankom Pog An eccentric teenage Tellarite, Jankom Pog became the engineer of the USS Protostar when he and a group of fellow young prisoners on the Tars Lamora prison colony stole the top secret ship to find refuge in the Federation. Star Trek: Prodigy's resident mechanic was an undersized, cantankerous contrarian who hid a big heart underneath all of his abrasive affectations.
7 Andy Billups The Chief Engineer of the USS Cerritos, Lieutenant Commander Andy Billups came across as a competent, fairly run-of-the-mill Starfleet officer in the early days of Star Trek: Lower Decks. It was eventually revealed that Billups was from Hysperia, a medieval fantasy sort of planet. He was the son and heir to the planet's monarch, Queen Paolana . Much to his mother's dismay, Billups rejected his native heritage and monarchical destiny to pursue a career in Starfleet.
4 Hemmer Taking place roughly a decade before the events of TOS, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds chronicles life on the USS Enterprise under the command of Captain Christopher Pike . A few other major legacy characters are around in SNW, like Lieutenant Spock and Cadet Nyota Uhura , but these were the days before Scotty joined the ship's crew. In his place was Lieutenant Hemmer , an Aenar with an incredibly high opinion of himself.
