I tend to think titles are meaningless as long as you're getting paid. I took a level/title cut in my last three company changes.
I've interviewed quite a few people who got hung up on the title being offered. I think it's their loss - the second bold job's total comp is ~2.3x that of the first bold job.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
