I used to work at Microsoft and have never heard or seen the TLA SWE before. Did mean to type SDE?

- appleflaxen 10y agoand the rest of us are even more confused
- perfectfire 10y agoMicrosoft used to work in "feature teams" of 3 disciplines: an SDE (Software Design Engineer), an SDET (Software Design Engineer in Test), and a PM (either Program Manager or Project Manager, I can never remember). I assume SWE is El Goog's name for an SDE probably standing for Software Engineer.
- existencebox 10y agoSorry for the confusion, I was at G prior and the "SWE" nomenclature never really dropped for me. SDE/SWE is pretty much interchangeable in my book
- perfectfire 10y agoAh that makes sense. I'm interviewing with G soon and so I hope to to be an SWE soon.
