SDE is software development engineer. CS is usually considered a field of mathematics that can take many routes. SDE as a learning path generally focuses on programming languages and frameworks to build useful applications, if CS is theory focused then SDE is the application focus. IT generally focuses on already built frameworks and tools for managing corporate networks and data security.
