This triggered me. Senior is a title that, like everything else in our Agile world, has been evolving to subsume activities that were once considered to be more specialized. Similar to how "devops" has combined sys admins and network engineers with development, and agile itself has combined "business analyst" with development, Senior now includes "team lead" and "architect". It's a pitiful state of affairs imo. And we've done it to ourselves. Every time we as a collective have complained that X is a waste of time, this persons job has no value, we don't need them, guess what? The people in charge listened. I personally don't like that this has happened for the primary reason it makes my job harder.
