What you call Wizarding I call "ordinary Software Development". A software developer spends ~70% of their time writing features and the rest mixed between organization/planning/roadmapping etc. A software engineer spends ~30% of their time writing features and the rest of it managing technical debt and making long-term investments towards better features and processes.
Too many companies need devs but have engineers, or they need engineers but only have devs :/
- heartbreak 7y agoI’ve never known anyone to distinguish between the two roles, and they seem to be used interchangeably in the industry. (Except those people who claim software engineers aren’t real engineers)
