Yes, I think we sometimes use the term "Engineer" a little too liberally in the US. For example, sometimes the janitor of an office building is called a "Custodial Engineer" which often just gets shortened to "Engineer". I remember the first time I heard a coworker say, "I'll call the engineer to have the thermostat adjusted". I thought that was overkill, but then a guy in overalls showed up and it made a little more sense.
