The term “software engineer” is often used interchangeably with “software developer”. But they aren't full synonyms. An engineer can do the developer’s work plus more. Developers create digital products for end-users. Engineers can make both such products and the software that is required for their development.

To make a career in software engineering, you should be good at:
