With my most recent job, I been hired as Senior Electrical Engineer - either due to mistake of an employer or some contract related issues (as I been told). However, for last 2 years, I have been mainly performing a job of a software engine/developer - very little if any electrical work.



This now becomes a confusion since several recruiters would send me purely electrical engineering positions (probably by not reading full description of my current position).



Would it be appropriate to use "Senior Software Engineer" in my resume to better reflect that I do at my job for future job hunting?
