We are attempting to create a position for an individual who creates custom software with VBA, SQL and possible PHP, HTML, CSS, Javascript to help across our departments with things like automating worksheets, creating interfaces through which our data can be accessed, etc. We were wondering what such a role would be called? I mentioned Software Developer because it seemed the most generic and able to reach across VBA through HTML, but my manager said it made her think of "Web Developer" which she didn't like and felt was too restrictive. Most of the work will be for back-end software.



Would "Software Developer" be the best role name for that description or is there something else? My manager thought "Database Developer" but to me that means specifically either developing databases.
