Description

Job Titles, especially for software developers, is something I usually call BULLSHIT! I’ve been a software developer for over 15 years and I still don’t know what to call myself. Beyond trying to agree on a generalized name for developers, software developers, programmers, software engineers, coders, computer programmers, and the like, we’ve got to contend with job titles. What the heck is the difference between a Senior Software Engineer and a Junior Software Engineer? And how do they compare to Software Developer II and Software Development Engineer in Test? This is some pretty confusing stuff. And of course, if it confuses me, I strongly believe it confuses you too... So, how should software developers call themselves? Does it even matter? Watch this video and find out!
