    As a modern software engineer, I believe the second panel is also sufficient to explain my job to congress.

      I’ve always struggled to succinctly describe my job to people outside of it, it’s muddy because I often fill gaps and there’s often a lack of clear r&r, I’m on paper a Data Engineer & Architect, I just say I design and build backend stuff and handle infrastructure.

      Had the same issue when I did Equipment Reliability Engineering, technical roles are often really hard to explain to people I’ve found.
