Faithful readers in the Portland area -- I am soon to hire a data nerd. (Check back here for a link to the job posting once I am able to push it through the layers of H.R. paperwork.)
And though I would prefer to just go ahead and call the position Data Nerd, I had to dream up a title. Bereft of inspiration, I googled "job title," and found Bullshit Job's Job Title Generator. Though I did not go with "Global Assurance Executive," it was embarrassingly helpful to look at a list of possible job suffixes.
Hence: Development Data Specialist. Aw yeah.
Oh, and I also took the "Is your job bullshit?" quiz. My score: 88, interpreted as "Chances are you irritate people."

well, i only scored a 46, but really, i work at a state institution, so it must be bs.
my personal job-title peeve: "Special Projects." When I meet someone in charge of "special projects," I know they're a tool.
Ha! Susan -- I totally put "special projects" in the job description I am hiring. Crap. I hope I don't end up hiring a tool. :)
