I use the term Functional Architect.
The issue is that for many larger projects (with 100 people over
years), there are actually 3 distinct jobs with different skillsets.
There is the designer who works with product management
marketing to help PM figure out what they want, and the focus is
I pretty much like the inversion. Intead of Interaction Design, I use
Design for Interaction. In that way I feel confortable to explain it
further in whatever context. Nowadays I am designing hardware
interfaces, before I worked with software and internet services,
mainly with interface design and
I lead with whatever the audience and market I am in understands, and
underneath that aim to paint a larger UX picture. The rest is just
jargon :)

I like the term interface designer, as it includes the artifact in

Before I started doing hardware design, I said software designer.
Like Josh I thought it helpful to focus on the product and found that
interface was too technical.
Now that I do hardware, I'm stuck with interaction designer
and the labor (of love) of explaining to people exactly what I do. In

It's probably overly simplistic, but I just use Web Designer usually.
I still think that anything 'architect' is a bit pretentious unless
you're putting up buildings. Interface Designer is a close second
for me, but I find that it doesn't come-off as well unless I'm
there in person to explain
I agree with Dave on this. I've always gone by the title Interaction
Designer. This is in large part because that is specifically what my
degree is in, but I've always considered my self to be an advocate for
IxD. So, when somebody asks me what I do, or when I am introducing
myself to a
This is what I am finding as well within my own experience. I'm currently
taking part in a entrepreneurial training program, and all of the program
participants have to deliver their business plan, and present it in front
our business advisors and a representive group of business owners from

different names ( interaction design, user experience design or user

I think of myself within the sphere of user experience. Interaction,
interface, information, service, decision-making, form components of the
