I call myself a Softwate Developer. I have an Engineering degree (Computer Engineering), but I don't wear a stripey hat, so I'm clearly not an engineer.

Employers are welcome to title me as they please, within the law. I enjoyed being titled as a Technical Yahoo, but only one company seemed to prefer that title.
