I'm a Linux System Engineer, so when people ask what I do I just say "I work in IT" and when they dig deeper, I ask "how technical/good with computers are you?" because I've explained what I do at a general level to people and have watched them get more and more lost. I've also dumbed it down a lot and people are like "I know tech" and then I go full nerd and lose them.
