I hate that they took away my analyst title. I'm not a software engineer dammit. I don't even have an IDE installed and haven't done any programming in 10+ years.
I’ve had so many wacky job titles that at this point i dont care as long as i get paid.

software engineer (engineer for short), software developer (dev/developer for short), software designer (although that last one sounds weird). the job is a lot more than programming, depending on your position it can be mostly communication or mostly engineering or mostly something else entirely. maybe even mostly sitting on your ass all day!
More importantly which do potential employers want to see on my resume because they're shifty bastards always moving the goal posta around
Is "Sir" too much to ask for?

I'd prefer senior developer but HR calls me a senior engineer.
I personally believe if you are writing novel IP software you are engineering, if you are just connecting cloud tools or writing basic ETL stuff, that's developing.
I'm probably 40/60 eng/dev. And 200% meetings.
As someone who is in tech… not sure, either.
My dad had the rare chance to name his position whatever he wanted, but the higher ups still rejected his choice of Grand Poobah.
Even in the trade myself for 30 years, I have nfc. Probably not Engineer (by itself) though.

And Computer Engineering is none of these.
