Comment by Michael J. Ryan on ""So, what's your role?""

I don't like applying the term Engineer with something that isn't practiced as an engineering discipline... Software development is usually an exercise as a craft discipline.

Aside from that, if you aren't writing a fair amount of code I wouldn't use the term developer, or would consider it a very jr position... what you are would be a senior web designer with some development skills. And there is nothing wrong with that.... working mock ups and demos are really helpful, and often all that is needed if it's mostly static or stand alone.

Just my $0.84 (inflation, you know)

Thanks for the reply (damn that inflation! ;) ). I see what you mean, but I don't mean it like an official engineering title you would get out of college. If people have other suggestions for that title, that's fine too. :) And just to clarify where I come from, I've been building websites from 2001, including PHP (and a bit of Javascript), so I have programmed in the past, but I've moved more to the design part of websites. UX/UI and design are now more my territory, but I still use code to make it visible and functional. :)

I know you didn't mean it as a degreed title, but in some states it's a legal requirement, and I just don't feel it's appropriate... Master Software Craftsman might be a better title.

Michael, I see what you mean. I don't want to create confusion in that part ;) How does Front End Mastermind sound? hahaha
