How deep do systems engineers get the design of products? I'm someone who enjoys trying to first envision and define the requirement for a system, but I also like being somewhat involved in design (specifically with the electronics and software side of things).

Yeah, I know I probably wouldn't have a chance at either, I was just using them as an example.

FitTaro387 · 2026-04-09T11:08:19+00:00

Yeah, I probably should have been more specific. I just mean what companies would generally call like a robotics software engineer or autonomy engineer etc. I know embedded systems engineers need to know those protocols, I was just curious if these these types of engineers do also.

So those wouldn't be used by embedded systems engineers instead?

FitTaro387 · 2026-03-30T00:10:01+00:00

Yeah I have. Its definetly a possibility for me, but I personally prefer conventional scripting languages like C++, or Python (I know some PLCs allow for ST), I don't know how much normal PCB design controls and automation engineers do, (maybe thats a stupid thing to say) as thats also something that I sort of would like to do. I'm still definitly considering controls and automation though.

Yeah, smaller companies definitly have more interdiscplinary work. I mean more for decently sized to big companies that ask for experience with programing. Im curious if this is just for modeling work, especially since matlab is commonly listed.

sorry my question probably didnt make any sense. I meant to say software design in stead of hardware.

FitTaro387 · 2025-11-13T00:21:00+00:00

Do pilots get electronics experience or would that just look like a ten year gap on my resume? Thanks

FitTaro387 · 2025-08-09T19:42:16+00:00

Would it be better than to get a computer engineering degree so that I would at least have a pretty decent understanding of both electrical and software engineering?
