Funny. Looks like I'm traveling down the demotion path as we've grown.

Literally started as Support Manager which basically meant that the tech support phone was on my desk in a four-person company. The three other people were the CEO, Software Development Manager and Hardware Development Manager.

Next, I became a Senior Software Developer, because a customer contract required seniors assigned to a project.

Now I'm a Software Specialist which basically means bottom of the bin in the title hierarchy here.

Sounds like lost a political struggle and weren't even aware it was happening. Maybe you're being taken advantage of?
