Software engineering is a discipline of engineering as much as mechanical (and electrical) engineering that designs, builds and operates a locomotive.
Worked in IT for a couple of decades in all kinds of roles and not a single person referred to themselves as "software engineer". It was nowhere in the HR documents either. And yes, it included for positions where certifications were required. Software engineers simply are not in a habit of calling themselves "engineers". Maybe it's an old fashioned label that's why.
