What Does a Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineer Do?

Refrigeration and air conditioning engineers install and maintain the components used in air conditioning and refrigeration systems. These systems provide a climate-controlled environment for either people or goods. This means that on one day you could be working on equipment that stores or transports perishable items such as food or medicine, and the next day you could be sorting the heating or cooling of an apartment block. The ideal candidate is someone who can think conceptually and is happy to problem solve. The modern refrigeration systems are a combination of mechanical engineering and electronics, so the ideal candidate will like working across both areas.
