Probably something like these engineers are attached to your fleet battlestation fleet and have enough shielding to traverse wormholes or something. Or copy the combat engineer's tooltip if it has an adequate one

I was very confused by them during my first hours in the game.
Because of the name I thought they somehow can build/repair turrets or other buildings a wormhole hop away, kinda like the ship line production ability of factories but for turrets, well because they are attached to turret-spawning flagships.
To be honest I am still not entirely sure if they are just normal Engineers with a different name or do something unique other than being mobile like Combat Engineers, stats at least seem identical.
Maybe rename them to something like "Defensive Engineer" and/or like Zweihander2021 says add a sentence to their description that they are working just like CEs?
