What I Do I'm a systems engineer. A systems engineer is a multifaceted role that encompasses all parts of the business model. This person works with computer science, engineering, mathematics and analytics to build a system to suit the needs of a business.
My Day At Work The system that is sending and receiving your email, your text messages, the file-sharing system you use at school. These are just some examples of systems you may be using that someone somewhere designed, built, and tested before empowering you with it to use. Systems Engineers, like me, thrive on using their technical expertise and passion for technology to design and build innovative systems to meet business needs. At the heart of innovation, design, architecture, good engineering practice, and all-around technological awesomeness you will find the Systems Engineer. We may call them many things, such as Systems Engineers, Infrastructure Engineers, Systems Integrators, Architects, Systems Analysts, and so forth.
Best Part Being a systems engineer is challenging, exciting, and requires a foundation in diverse engineering fields. Like the conductor of an orchestra, a systems engineer manages the design, production, and implementation of software or technology. Systems engineers work in fields from aerospace to communications, so you’ll need to choose a focus.
Want to be an Engineer? Every organization has a variety of systems that need to work well together. Systems engineers understand the big picture of how these systems integrate, and they are responsible for identifying inefficiencies, recommending improvements, and resolving issues. Because systems engineers are responsible for helping different parts of the organization integrate efficiently, a large part of their job involves effective management and leadership skills.
