Why do you care about titles? If a role paid you more but insisted that you would be an “intern”, would you decline it?

like

Learned this early. Title means nothing - I will take a job that challenges me and pays well over title any day

It’s high risk but potentially massive reward. If you believe in the product and company, go for it. If you have doubts about its success, avoid it

like

Specifically in the startup world, the amount of equity you can manage to get is going to be much more impactful than the title

Yes

Also factor is how much up can you move here.

You sounds like a punch drinking elitist boob.

Than you should definitely go for it.
