if you want to be an IC, then you are a "technical operations expert with <word fluff> operating and deploying services"

if you want to lead, embrace the "Director of IT" title and play up the fact it was an SMB if you're going for a relatively low level leadership role (team lead, etc).

whatever you do, get rid of the phrase "tech lead". i've yet to meet someone who described themselves with that term that didn't make me go "this fucking guy"
