    Yeah, I struggle with that.

    • I’m not allowed to be called an Architect because the Lead Architect only allows product people in the role, however I’m equivalent rank.
    • I spend way too much time doing project management, but I despise that
    • I don’t lead a specific team or have people but I set requirements for engineering and sometime borrow people from teams
    • I’m in the Quality Engineering organization but don’t do QA
    • some people think I’m a Build Engineer, and I do set some of their requirements
    • some think I’m AppSec, and I do try to fill their gaps and apply their work to the organization.

    Recently, maybe DevSecOps sounds most accurate, and I avoid talking rank so I don’t piss off that Prima Donna
