Introductions are fun, everyone is just nervously waiting for their turn and not listening to anyone else. No names or titles or whatever are remembered in big introductions. So either I just say “My name is <name> and I work with <task> at <location>” and I know that it’s already forgotten.
The crux of the problem, just tell the engineers where the other engineers are, don’t even need to exchange names, we’re happy just calling each other engineer until we need to. Kind of prefer it actually.

Is it really like that for everybody?
No, usually in meetings those intros help separate managers from technical staff, so I know who will actually be useful to talk to.
