What is the difference between a sound designer, sound editor, audio engineer, and mixing engineer?

I’ll use baking as an analogy
Sound design: Create/compile and plan music and sounds.
Create a recipe/decide what to make
Audio Engineer: Use equipment to capture and record or broadcast music and sounds.
Gather and prepare all baking ingredients
Audio Editor: Fixes/cleans tracks. Removed unwanted noise, fix timing, reduce the number of individual files
Clean the kitchen/dishes and pre-heat the oven
Mix Engineer: Take recorded sounds and make changes/add effects to get desired product.
Mix all your baking ingredients together and bake the cake
Mastering Engineer: Prepare the final mix for distribution/consumption
Decorate the cake and make it look yummy
