Ever wonder what is the difference between a specialist, analyst or architect is? What about a cloud engineer? While many organizations take a very frugal way of defining the role, many smaller organizations don’t really structure their positions correctly.
For those new to IT, it’s very difficult to understand why one job has an IT Analyst doing completely different things from another. Add to this the horrible naming of the Cloud architect certifications – which does not equate to an architect position at any company.
(A cloud architect certification means you can do basic administrative operations, so look for engineer jobs, analyst jobs, specialist jobs).
If you’re going into the security field, and want an official list of titles and what they mean TechNation has created a standardized naming convention. Check out this great PDF:
Hope this helps!
