Generally speaking, engineering jobs are technical in nature, regardless of what discipline you have received your training in. As such, you should dedicate a portion of your resume to your technical skills, qualifications and certifications in the form of a technical summary.
For the best results, subcategorize these skills, qualifications and certifications. For example, if you were a computer engineer, the following would be an appropriate set of subcategories for your Technical Skills Summary:
- Technical / Computer Certifications
- Hardware
- Operating Systems
- Networking / Protocols
- Programming / Language
- Web applications
- Database applications
