1) Structural engineers, who make detailed analyses based on the geometry of structures, such as bridges and skyscrapers and roller coaster rides
2) NASA, that plots trajectories around Earth and through space, requiring a sophisicated understanding of dynamic geometry
3) Automotive designers, that create 3D models of vehicles blending art with form, requiring use of CAD tools both for graphic rendering and production blueprints
4) Movie animation production facilities, working in a virtual world of computer models with mathematically defined motion which is based on geometry of curves and splines.

Anyone who builds anything: carpenters, architects, engineers. Painters use geometry to calculate square footage. Seamstresses and fashion designers for calculating how much fabric will be needed. Gardners and landscapers. I'm sure there are more but that's a start.

Masonry, carpentry, engineering. Masons and carpenters use geometry when making plans for building houses, foundations etc. Engineers use geometry when making plans for bridges to make sure it is strong enough. These aren't the only profesions that use geomety, however.
