Well, that's pretty humble of you. :)
I advocated for the term to only be used by folks that can build their own computer, language, OS, and apps. Look up Chuck Moore and Niklaus Wirth for examples focusing on simplicity. For full-stack architect w/ team building it, look up Bob Barton of Burrough B5000. I cant remember if early folks writing Lisp interpreters built the CPU's, too. I know Burger did for a Scheme CPU, though.
