Engineers build products, period. Almost all ugly products and certainly all beautiful products are build by engineers, usually with the assistance of people who are proficient in design. Engineers from time to time build beautiful products by themeselves, but most people don't care to understand the beauty of an underlying complex system. The mathematics and design behind a bridge or traffic lights are immense, as is the number of different engineering disciplines involved. The site that everytime you visit throws a javascript popup and make the experience on your mobile horrible? Yeah, it isn't built by an engineer and probably whοever build it didn't decide upon the popup himself. Techcrunch's site loads assets from 93 different domains. I don't know of a single engineer who would build something like that.
