At a very simplistic level, engineering is all about problem solving, innovation and making our daily lives easier. Using math as the main tool, you incorporate other sciences (physics, chemistry, biology, etc) to come up with an integrated solution and strive to enhance/better/develop/strengthen it.

Not sure if you are looking for the Processes for System engineering or possibly what does it mean to be a Process Engineer.
Process Engineering typically will break down into two categories:
- Developing a new process:
In this scenario, a process engineer could be brought in to define and document a process which has not been done before, based on the outcomes that someone is looking for. For example, in a startup, there are many things to get done, but if you want to be able to consistently replicate the same outcome for product development, then you need a process that lays out who would do what, when from inception to product launch and ongoing product grooming.
- Improving an existing process:
In this scenario, if the consistency of delivering the results of a process (like a product launch) are not consistent across groups who are following a process, a process engineer would come in to assess the process, see where there are issues with either people adhering to the process or gaps that might need to be closed. These would then get assessed from a cost - benefit perspective and if the change is desired, the improvements would be implemented.
Hopefully that gives you a sense of a process engineer. I have worked as a Lean Six Sigma Black Belt, it is a methodology for process engineering, but there are others that can also be followed.
Best of luck.
