#Who should apply for software

they're the same thing bro
amazon calls them software development engineers
don't worry about it
I saw some company with swe and software dev intern positions, so thought I would ask. But if they are the same, then I guess I will apply to both.
@fervent pier Ay just to clarify, software engineering and software development quite literally describe the same thing since neither is a protected title. Calling yourself an engineer is more of an ego boost than anything lol.
Though in practice, pay/prestige tends to go up this "ladder": Programmer > Developer > Engineer . The titles may be fake but they do often correlate to compensation.
