There is no such thing as a Software Engineer.

"Margaret Hamilton popularized and coined the term 'software engineering' to give the discipline the same legitimacy as hardware engineering".

That's new to me, I didn't know she coined the term. She's the first true "software engineer" then, I suppose. I remember her from that historic photo where she's standing next to a pile of code printed out, a stack talled than her.
