Systems engineer

Increasingly, as various disciplines of engineering become more complex and technologically advanced, they also come together more often.

In the past, for instance, the construction of a metro rail system mainly involved civil and electrical engineers. These days, however, that rail system has to work with digital apps and artificial intelligence technology. It must communicate with bus systems, traffic control systems and weather data in order to predict demand in real-time. It requires security, not just in a physical sense but, more importantly, in a cyber sense. And it must all be developed in an environment in which passengers expect greater efficiencies and individualisation of customer experience.

This involves the coming together of numerous engineering disciplines on one project. That project, at its core, will require a systems engineer to focus on how the work of various disciplines will combine to create, manage and maintain the infrastructure. The Engineering Futures 2035 scoping study reports that there is strong employment growth of 21% forecast for software and applications programmers in the next five years, 60% of whom will be required in professional services.

this is all to know about systems engineers i will try and find more information.
