Depends on the company, but mostly it will revolve around programming work, for some company it's purely programming, for some company it's programming + testing + a bit of project management,

but programming will definitely be there.

I'm currently working as a software engineer here in London. While my job does involve coding, I'm more involved in the design stage of the system.

I don't know if this job title is abused in M'sia (much like business procurement consultant), but if you're a SE, you should be involved in the entire SDLC, not just the development stage.

A systematic software development should employ steps in SDLC.
