Engineers can have some of the most exciting and creative jobs. They must determine where the tracks should be placed, select the right roller coaster for an environment, and then make the roller coaster safe. Making sure the ride is safe means they have to test them out to make sure the weights and speeds are set correctly. Most states require these engineers to have a license.

Roller coasters need to have something exciting about them to make them popular rides that parks are willing to pay a lot of money for. This means loops, embankments, and decorations must be considered, but that also makes the danger level higher. A team of engineers and drafters work together to develop the structure, electronics and layout of the ride, but factors like budget and park size can affect the final project.
