This is the answer.
I am interviewing right now and my previous experience includes devops roles and SRE roles, so I get contacted for both by recruiters. After hearing about the responsibilities and examples for these roles I can only come to the conclusion that titles are a waste of time. Even the "level" of a title of Staff, Principal, Lead, etc are a waste of time. Just call the job what it is and if you can't decide on what it is at least to an 80% level, maybe you're asking too much for that job?
