Magitek Engineering is actually used by Lominsan shipwrights. However, they generally bring in engineers from outside of the guilds (Generally from the Garlond Ironworks) in order to outfit their ships with magitek engines. Engineering wouldn't at all fall under the armorer's guild. If we were to be specific, it'd likely fall under the Garlond Ironworks. Some people seem to think the Ironworks is comprised of just Cid, Biggs, and Wedge, and thus avoid it since it seems like such a select group storyline centric characters. However, it is in fact rather large, and we met quite a handful of random engineers who were a part of the ironworks over the course of the 1.0 storyline. It's absolutely possible to be a part of the Ironworks and have no direct relation to Cid~

Merri did serve as an engineer with the Ironworks for a time prior to the calamity, though he's currently on a hiatus. I could see him picking back up the mantle to help out with instructing fledgling engineers on occasion, though.
