CEO?
Well, if I can't convince my girlfriend to move down here if it gets more serious, I could always start my own business up there... but I think that is for the future. We already have a CEO, and I think he might complain... :laugh:

Well, you said that "we're a flat organization, mostly all peers". If it's flat, then you are all at the same level, so... congratulations new CEO! :-D

Well, you probably aren't moving to another company anytime soon, but the title might have an effect on salary. Engineer seems to qualify for more than programmer. Personally I like Code Monkey. Will eat bugs for food.

Actually, salary is based on the department I am in and experience/training/degree. Ironically my department is Engineering. How is "3D Software Engineer/Architect" (I just "borrowed" it from Monster.com)

Never promise beyond what you can deliver. :) If I were Omniscient I wouldn't need my own set of debugging tools. ;P

I also said "mostly all peers"... I have a supervisor, an Engineering Manager, and then it is just the VP and President/CEO. All 50 some engineers are peers, including my programming team. but thank you for the vote of confidence! :-D

hmmmm... we don't really have them, but they look nice on business cards. Given the presence of a hollywood team of visual experts and 3D visualization experts from across the country I think it is time I change mine from "Computer Programmer". Work doesn't care, as long as you don't lie, or the title denotes a seniority (we're a flat organization, mostly all peers). So now I am in search of a job title.... (or subtitle) Computer programmer/3D specialist? any ideas?... yeah I know... creativity is easier in 3D graphics than tooting my own horn.

I could say Software Manipulator too... Though it implies a bit more than fashion design....

Imagine me on my knees in front of you: May I use this as my signature? Please?! If I had my own company I would hire that guy immediately: he's too clever! By the way, I don't even own my house, yet, so don't send me all yours curricula....

I always preferred
Computer Programmer
, but useSenior Software Engineer
since that's what people expect (especially those writing the checks; it just sounds like you should pay the latter more.) I knew a guy once who listed his title asSoftware Guy

My first company I was at I was
Software Engineer
, then after 3 years I found I was mentoring new people that whereSenior Software Engineer
. I queried my boss about this and he said he regarded me more than just aSoftware Engineer
but wouldn't promote me ?!? I refused to mentor from then on and shortly after quit. The company counter offered with 15% pay rise and promotion toSenior Sofware Engineer
so I stayed for 6 months, got the 3.5K bonus that was also part of the counter offer and then left (as other promises of change weren't realised). The next company had a flat structure so I was employed asSoftware Engineer
. I left after 2 years and the new company wouldn't employ me as Senior as I didn't have experience of security/certificates etc. 9 months later I left for another company that wouldn't employ me as Senior as I didn't have media experience. 2 years later, still atSoftware Engineer
, I've handed in my notice. My new title will beTechnical Consultant
sweet! :DNever argue with an imbecile; they bring you down to their level, and beat you with experience.
