To be fair though, can't you say the same about the title "software engineer". Without further qualifiers such a title can run quite the gamut of skill-sets.

- peatmoss 8y agoI see more segmentation in software roles: front-end, back-end, full-stack, embedded, devops, realtime systems are all labels that get you in roughly the right place. Beyond that, there are labels that refer to specific technologies that get you even closer: Rails, Elixir, Django, React, QT, C#/Winforms, Verilog. There really aren’t the equivalent shorthand filters in data science.
