They're not calling "all engineers" their calling all software engineers/devs/programmers/etc. I suspect that if I sent in a resume that documents my MIT MechE degree, MA PE license, 15 years of acoustical engineering experience, and basically 0 software development experience, it would take all of about 5 secs for it to wind up in the Trash folder.

Yeah, it's a nitpick, and go ahead and downvote me, it's just that I'm annoyed at the propensity for tech firms to equate "engineer" with "software dev". A software dev may be an engineer but the relationship is not reciprocal.
