Discussion
Systems engineer is not a term in ISO/IEC/IEEE 24865:2010. The INCOSE website has a description but not a definition:
Systems engineers concentrate their efforts on the aspects of the engineering process (requirements definition, top-level functional designs, project management, life cycle cost analysis,...) that serve to organize and coordinate other engineering activities. The systems engineer is the primary interface between management, customers, suppliers, and specialty engineers in the systems development process.
