Witnesses operate the servers that sign the blocks which create the blockchain, thus making up the backbone of the network. They also perform some other functions such as providing the price feed that values Steem Dollars. Finally they do a variety of other work to support and promote the Steem ecosystem, such as the design, development, and security analysis that @arhag mentioned in his post. If you want the system to work well and be supported with other efforts you should vote for witnesses who you trust to carry out these functions competently and honestly.
