📝Job title = role + level

Job titles usually comprises a role + optionally a level. It may be helpful to separate the two as they seem to serve different purposes.

Counterexamples

  • Roles are somewhat tied with levels. e.g., Software Architects are assumed to be more skilled than Software Engineers.

  • There may be job titles that don’t have an underlying role (as in, don’t have a unique purpose and responsibilities). They are likely to be problematic and suffer from being vaguely defined (see Clarifying roles).
