You can do all but the most cutting edge engineering on your own. People still build cars and planes in their garages. Lots of amateur radio hobbyists build their own radios. Even if you got an engineering degree you'd most likely spend 10 years working on boring projects before you got to do anything novel.

I already do those things.
My post literally meant: I am an engineer who never got a degree. Oh man it would be so cool to work specifically for helion, but a degree is a requirement. I wish I had gotten it back in the day, because I would apply for one of the positions.
The job postings all say: "We believe in hiring individuals. If you do not check all of the boxes, we still encourage you to apply. If this job isn't a fit, we have many other openings that may be one. "
So maybe if you have relevant experience and can show it, apply anyways?
Do you believe you can do the work of someone with a degree (or maybe comparable): I bet they'll still be interested!
