Yeah. It's "engineering".

Wikipedia's introductory paragraph to the subject includes the following sentence:

Engineering involves balancing competing demands such as safety, performance, aesthetics, cost, laws and regulations, and time, while operating within fundamental limits such as the laws of physics.

(from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering)

I realize the word is overloaded now and that people are confusing writing programs and other cerebral pursuits with engineering, but that doesn't change its original definition.
