My work is making us (the technicians) business cards and we have 24 hours to come up with something cooler then "technician" to be our title on the cards. We've had a hard time coming up with something that is good and interesting, but not stupid. Thesaurus.com has been visited, but nothing exciting came of it.

I work in the entertainment lighting industry with LED fixtures. So, for example, some one came up with "LED Systems Expert" which is good, but i was hoping for something a little more.....creative....er something.

anyone care to put any ideas on the table for my (and the rest of the techs at Element Labs) job title?

any idea is welcome.
feel free to check out www.elementlabs.com. The site is going to be updated soon, so please forgive it's current state.

You're right. This is hard. I still can't stand Software Engineer for my own profession, which is why I usually just use the good old fashioned 'programmer'.
