A "Founding Engineer" at 0.5% is an inflated title for "someone who can actually produce a project but is going to get clobbered at exit time."

The title itself is mostly a lie.

I agree. What started as a title that signaled the individual was there at the earliest parts of building the venture, it has been abused.
