She wasn’t even the Chief Engineer on the Hiawatha though, she was just said to be an engineer serving onboard, and we know she isn’t Chief on Discovery because in Season 2 she says that the Discovery chief engineer sent her to Stamets lab. It’s left really vague. The sameway that Culber isn’t the CMO as most think he is, that’s Dr. Pollard. Discovery doesn’t follow the typical thing of focusing on roles onboard but people individually. I love it but it does make things slightly odd when trying to figure out whos who sometimes.
Oh that’s totally understandable. I did too. I’m not saying this like an “um actually” for the record, just hammering home your own point, but in Season 3 onwards she’s third highest ranking. In Season 2 she’s 4th highest ranking and still just a fuckin Commander. Pike, Saru, Burnham, Her. Presumably the Chief Engineer also outranks her by position/time onboard and Dr. Pollard is a Commander too so that knocks her down to 6th… It’s fuckin crazy how many high ranking people are on Discovery. Understandable given the importance of the vessel but holy shit.
