I don't think there is a huge difference however his professional credentials/degrees must justify his job title. BTW, the job title can also be changed once you arrive in Saudi but it is a long and tedious process.

One extra benefit of having an engineering profession in your Iqama is allowing you to sponsor a domestic helper and a driver pulse it helps in bringing parents on a visiting visa ( none of this is guaranteed, but it helps).
