That's interesting. In the scope of FRC, I believe that the SE group would probably be composed of of the chief designer/engineer/wizard/etc. to begin with.

To talk about System Engineering in general, some documentation (read: wikipedia) seems to imply that the SE folks are involved in design and managing of complex projects. I suppose the specific role tends to vary from company to company.
