If the title is software engineer, it is though. Solving business problems is not engineering. I get that at the end of the day it's about making money, but these expectations are not clear and the title ultimately reflects your expertise. I think part of the problem is the lack of standards in software engineer compared to other engineering, which have code of ethics and often require a license to practice. Those other engineering jobs are probably not doing management or solving business problems.
