Hardware Engineer Job Description

[kharken]

Hi! I just want to know about the job description of a hardware engineer. Does it usually involve computers?

Computers are my passion and if I am to choose between software and hardware, I'd choose the latter. Are there any certifications/skillsets I should obtain before applying for my first job? Any advice?
