There is a reason that in construction, the architect and the structural engineer are separate roles. From what I've seen in software dev, it cannot be considered engineering until a similar division is normalized, mandated and legally required. It's easy to shove things into production, too easy.

(Side rant, the fact that academic computer science is so far away from real life is yet another can of worms)
