Systems architect at a nonprofit medical research agency. That title basically means I am the head code monkey and help all the other code monkeys with planning and architecture and [try to] get them to adhere to standards, etc.

Thankfully I still get to write plenty of code and come up with new and better ways of designing apps for reusability and such.
