Design Engineer? UI Engineer? UX Engineer? Which is the correct title? And do they belong to web design studios? - Wondering how to market myself as a designer who codes and is looking to work for an agency. What do you think?

Picking a side might be more lucrative in terms of job demand. It's difficult to take sell yourself without a focus/niche. Once you land somewhere often your role becomes more ambiguous and can provide help/leadership with all your talents.
I always thought about it the other way. Having both abilities makes you stand out. But I see your point how it would be easier niching down at the beginning
I have a resume for UI Engineer, product design, and front-end development. Right now they’re not really different lol, but I change the one I use based on the job I’m applying for. There are dedicated UI engineer/Design engineer roles that explicitly require both backgrounds.
