At a previous job I worked with someone who didn't see a buzzword they didn't like. Since nobody was stopping them, they designed an incredibly convoluted system using all the latest tech. In the end we replaced it with a JVM server and a Postgres database.
I occasionally check their LinkedIn and they're still spending 12-15 months every time at companies, being CTO or Big Data Strategist or whatever.
