Wow! If I had a nickel for every time a Trek show had a blind engineer, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. Right? (startrek.website)

He never became Chief Engineer because Stamets was never an Engineering Officer. He's in Science Division. The link is just flat out wrong. I suspect they might be using 'chief' engineer to mean that he's the engineer we see the most of in Season 1. Also that link hasn't been updated since Season 1.
