Were there engineers in airship nacelles, and why were they there?

I am reading some old letters and there's a mention of an engineer who worked for a time in the engine nacelles of the Hindenburg. He didn't seem to like it very much.

Were there engineers posted in airship nacelles?

Why?

How do you get to one?

If an engine failed, what would be a repairable failure mode from the air?

Or were the engineers just glorified gauges?
