Groups of RSEs with tasks spanning the entire organisation necessarily have to offer diverse knowledge.
112112
Obtaining this diversity of knowledge and experience can also be a challenge, but once it has been established it quickly becomes an asset to the organisation.

RSEs in centralised groups are interdisciplinary specialists.

They are interdisciplinary due to their broad experience by working on diverse research topics and their ability to apply a diverse set of research methodoligies.

At the same time they are specialists concerning research software and how it can best improve research.

They are assumed to be able to suggest the most appropriate tools/frameworks and design or architecture patterns for certain research challenges.

Their diversity in skills (languages, frameworks, front/back-end, UX, management) is welcomed, especially for short-term needs in projects.

The field of RSE teams in Germany is currently poorly mapped and very diverse.

It includes groups with responsibilities across institutions like the Helmholtz HIFIS group\footnote{\url{https://events.hifis.net/category/4/}}\autocite{haupt_hifis_consulting_2021},

While we focus on Germany in this paper, it is beneficial to review how other countries approach research software.

In the UK, which we choose as example for being the oldest in terms of RSE, many universities started initiating dedicated RSE units about a decade ago~\autocite{Crouch2013, KDL}.

The successful establishment of these units is a role model for similar research performing organisations worldwide.

In the UK, almost all grant applications include software development in their budget.

This allocated money can then be utilised to delegate/dispatch a central RSE person or group into a research project for a few weeks or months as necessary.
