AI firms adopt new job titles

Recently, there has been a trend among AI companies to use a vague job title known as "Member of the Technical Team" instead of traditional titles like "Chief Technology Officer" or "Software Engineer." This designation is becoming increasingly common in job postings and organizational structures, with analysis showing that approximately 39% of employees at Anthropic, 31% at OpenAI, and 26% at xAI hold this title, representing a 50% increase in 2025. This deliberate ambiguity aims to conceal details from competitors, enhance employees' sense of belonging to the technical work without emphasizing hierarchy, making it harder to identify specific responsibilities, and protecting strategic information. It also allows companies greater flexibility in distributing expertise and attracting talent, and promotes the principle of collective responsibility. However, it can lead to organizational disputes when there is uncertainty about the distribution of authority within companies, especially in decisions related to AI system development.
