The Title Doesn’t Matter
Podcast Description
Join me as I talk to people from all walks of life about their careers, jobs, side-gigs, or even passion projects, and how the title they’re given never tells the full story of the work that they do.
Podcast Insights
Content Themes
Focuses on career journeys, professional challenges, and personal passions with episodes discussing the complexities of work-life balance, entrepreneurial endeavors, and industry insights, such as Jason Tucker’s experience in electrical engineering and Devin Rafus’s perspective as a criminal defense attorney.

The Title Doesn’t Matter is an interview format podcast exploring the lived experience behind the label. Each week, I talk with people across industries and career stages — from entrepreneurship to education and everywhere in between — about what their work actually looks like: the parts that don’t make it into a résumé or bio.
From startup founders and classroom teachers to corporate leaders and creatives, my guests and I unpack unexpected career pivots, hidden responsibilities, quiet doubts, and defining breakthroughs. This podcast dives into the nuance and intricacies that titles can’t capture — the growth, the ambiguity, the lessons learned, and the identity we build beyond a line on a business card.
Because at the end of the day, always remember, the title doesn’t matter; you do.
In this episode of The Title Doesn’t Matter, I sit down with Roman Rytov, Founder and CEO of Ereztech, a company focused on advanced materials, organometallic chemistry, and semiconductor manufacturing solutions. We talk about what it takes to build and lead a highly specialized technology company, and the challenges of scaling a business in the chemical and semiconductor industries.
Roman shares his journey from studying mathematics and working in the IT world to launching and growing Ereztech in the advanced materials and chemical manufacturing industry. We also discuss entrepreneurship, leadership, problem-solving, and the mindset required to navigate uncertainty while building something from the ground up. It’s a thoughtful conversation about business, resilience, and the reality that titles may describe what you do — but not necessarily who you are.
