Great Engineers are one of the types of Great People in Civilization VI. They are primarily about buildings, production, and especially Wonders. Many Engineers will assist in progressing construction of a Wonder much more quickly than otherwise possible, sometimes triggering a secondary effect as well. Other Engineers use charges to produce buildings in districts, sometimes above the current tech level.
