Unfortunately they are interchangeable in the industry.
Ideally engineer would require an engineering degree and encapsulate more engineering skills such as fault analysis, risk analysis / mitigation, requirement capture and traceability, design capture and verification, etc. Things that are done in traditional engineering capacity that is required in a regulated environment.
- sirwhinesalot 5y agoAs a software "engineer" working in an engineering company, what I do is not even remotely close to engineering. Indeed the terms are interchangeable. I guess with the latter you can ask for more money? Back in my home country to be a SE instead of a SD you need to have gotten a master's degree from university. In practice there is no difference whatsoever.
