Tractor engineer, crop genetics engineer, construction-systems of farm equipment engineer, etc...
I initially was going to poke fun at the odd/unconventional comparison of the sentence, but your response is great, and brings to light the question of "well, they're actually not as mutually exclusive as one might initially believe..."
In the Occupations module, I too hear it as an 'n' in the first instance, unlike any of the three very different pronunciations at https://www.teanglann.ie/en/fuaim/feirmeoir. But later in the same module, I hear it as an 'm'. You just pays your money and takes your choice, I suppose.
