> I am still a software engineer working on what benefits my organization

But if you saw a nearby local maximum that's higher than your current local maximum, wouldn't you change what you call yourself, if it means being paid more but doing the same work?

This is similar to how the average "software engineer" makes about $30k/year more than the average "programmer".
