    A few more titles that you will hate, but actually describe your role. You are in no sense just a senior developer.

    You are an

    • Architect
    • Solution Architect
    • Project Manager and Team Leader
    • Service Manager

    Which one fits best, you have to decide. But i would put this up on my resume if i had your responsibilities.

      Yeah, I struggle with that.

      • I’m not allowed to be called an Architect because the Lead Architect only allows product people in the role, however I’m equivalent rank.
      • I spend way too much time doing project management, but I despise that
      • I don’t lead a specific team or have people but I set requirements for engineering and sometime borrow people from teams
      • I’m in the Quality Engineering organization but don’t do QA
      • some people think I’m a Build Engineer, and I do set some of their requirements
      • some think I’m AppSec, and I do try to fill their gaps and apply their work to the organization.

      Recently, maybe DevSecOps sounds most accurate, and I avoid talking rank so I don’t piss off that Prima Donna

      It’s not a huge project (3-4 devs, including myself), there’s simply not enough to do for a dedicated architect. PM and SM are done by dedicated roles, but as a lead dev, I obviously have to play translator quite a bit.
