There is something inside of me trying to process the parade of resumes I'm seeing that say someone is a "JavaScript Engineer"

It could all be branding!!!! That said, nobody who professes to be a "JavaScript engineer" seems down with either real-world frontend device constraints or the complex tradeoffs in service design that arise from the CAP theorem.

The folks who have facility with these problems seems to call themselves "web developer" or "frontend engineer" (on the client) or something other-language-aligned on the server (even if they spend all day in JS/TypeScript).

Nah. PHP was the widest road; JS might be that now. I think this is signaling. JS might just say "I'm in the valuable middle"?

Feels rather branding-y, yeah. Although I suspect it might mean "I've done a bunch of JS on the client, and I've done some node, but I don't really want to call myself 'full-stack', so... I'm an engineer, and I do JS"?
