I am an electronics engineer and I design digital signal processors for the professional sound industry. I design logic circuits and I interface them to PCs through USB and ethernet to test them and to program the firmware in the micro-controllers. I work with a firmware programmer and a Windows GUI programmer to tuer out complete products.
To do this sort of work you need a college degree in electronics engineering plus a deep passion for it as you have to keep learning at a high rate for the rest of your life.
I use a fair bit of math every day.We use log scales for a lot of our measurements and I use Excel to calculate out a lot of component values. This often requires constructing formulas to come up with the answers I need. Then Excel does the math itself. But you still need to know all the rules so you can write the formulas.
On the other hand it pays six figures. And because you learn all your life, your chance of getting Alzheimers is very low.
