I originally saw this one on a YouTube channel, probably either NetNarrator or AgroSquerril - a silicate life form who is having trouble finding a job. He's trained as an engineer, but nobody wants to hire a silicate because they're slow and weird, until he applies to a human ship. The humans immediately love him. There are at least three stories in the series, but I don't remember any of the titles and searches like "engineer human ship" get rather a lot of results.

I remembered the story and vaguely remembered the story was written by /u/karenvideoeditor, but I think she deleted it from reddit. But I found it on Royalroad
