Before I started doing hardware design, I said "software designer".
Like Josh I thought it helpful to focus on the product and found that
"interface" was too technical.

Now that I do hardware, I'm "stuck" with "interaction designer"
and the labor (of love) of explaining to people exactly what I do. In
a way, It is actually a great opening ...

"I'm an Interaction Designer"
"What's that?"
"Blah blah blah ... [chance to really teach people]."

What I learned from "software designer" is that many people were
left thinking I was a developer ... same for UI Designer, etc. This
way I get to explain my role more completely. Sometimes a vague
opening allows for a strong finish. :)
