I once got asked this question by a technical recruiter in a phone call. I said I don't think there is a difference. She started explaining how Software Developer is someone who just codes and that's it, and Software Engineer is someone who understands business requirements and different constraints to come up with the best solution, and how their company is looking for Software Engineers like this. I almost wanted to hang up on the call. I understand the importance of going beyond "just coding", but titles vary by company.
Right now my title is "Software Development Engineer" so I basically have both. My previous contracts stated "Software Developer" or "Software Engineer" in the past, and it was the same job.
