    Guidance on hiring software engineers

    What is software development?

    Engineering is an expansive discipline that integrates scientific principles and practical applications to design, build, and maintain structures, machines, devices, systems, and processes. Broadly speaking, engineering is about problem-solving and innovation. Engineers apply mathematical, scientific, and technical knowledge to address real-world problems and create efficient, functional solutions.

    Software Engineering

    Within the realm of engineering, software engineering focuses explicitly on the design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance of software systems. It adapts engineering methodologies and applies them to create software that is reliable, efficient, and scalable. Software engineers systematically approach problems, leveraging algorithms, data structures, and programming languages to develop software that fulfills specified requirements.

    Software engineering can be subdivided into various branches, each specializing in different aspects of software creation:

    * System Engineering: Focuses on building foundational software that other applications run on, such as operating systems and server software.
    * Application Engineering: Involves creating user-centric applications, like mobile apps, desktop applications, and web services.
    * Embedded Software Engineering: Deals with software embedded within hardware devices ranging from consumer electronics to automotive systems.

    In summary, while engineering as a whole involves problem-solving across various domains, software engineering zeros in on developing software solutions, meticulously translating user requirements into functional, efficient, and robust software applications.
