Such a overused quote, but still, seems to apply to "position names" as well: > There are only two hard problems in computer science...

  That's because it's difficult to really define a job in IT with clear description along with set roles and responsibilities. In some orgs, it's the title that dictates what you can/can't do. In some orgs, eventually your title is decided based on your role/responsibilities. In many orgs, your title is just an HR/accounting construct and has no relation to what you do and you do whatever your boss asks you to regardless of what your role on payslip says.

    I was in a company where we had separate external and internal titles. The external ones were all fancy like "Principal Architect" and all that. The internal ones told people inside the company what you _actually_ did.

      was the internal one something like "developer V"?
