What should I name my department of engineers?

Hi all,

I am being asked to rebrand my team of engineers after a split in my department happened. I currently manage one Data Engineer and 2 Systems (software) Engineers. We develop full stack systems to capture and manage data, automation and data visualization. Our skills include SQL, Python, C#, .net, VB, Power BI, Tableau, Snowflake, and a bunch more but within that frame. We work primarily in Azure cloud based framework.

We are coming from a department labeled Strategic Information and Business Intelligence and are considering renaming to Information Systems, DevOps or Data Systems, but they are mostly generic and there is a divide within my team. Any naming help would be appreciated.

Department name.

Let me suggest “Software development”. That covers all, is rather future proof, and clearly different from Strategic Information and Business Intelligence.

I think you should name it “Fred” or whatever you want to.

When naming your department of engineers, it’s important to choose a name that accurately represents the nature and purpose of the team while also being memorable and reflective of your organization’s values.
Here are a few suggestions:
1) Engineering Solutions Division.
2) Innovation Engineering Department.
3) Technical Excellence Team
4) Advanced Engineering Group.
5) Engineering Solutions Lab.
6) Technical Development Department.
7) Engineering Innovation Hub.
8) Systems Engineering Division.
9) Engineering Excellence Center.
10) Technology and Design Department.
Consider the goals and specialties of your department as well as the company culture when selecting a name. It’s also helpful to involve your team members in the brainstorming process to ensure the name resonates with them.
