Not disagreeing with you, but if I'd probably not like to be called the "tech guy". Or the "biz guy" for that matter. I'd feel it too pigeon-holing. Maybe works for others, and when the division is very cut&dry - I'm probably just being oversensitive - but I'd personally find labels like that too limiting - especially in a startup where you only have, say, 2-3 people... each with multiple skills and differing, overlapping levels of proficiency.
