Title inflation

The most I would conclude from knowledge that an employee is titled "Sr A" is that the employee is expected to perform at a higher level than peer employees of title "A" alone and could possibly be in a higher pay band or job grade/level than said employee in job "A". Senior titles are not universally "higher ranking" than similar non-Senior titles... I have seen career tracks out there for Data Specialist, Sr Data Specialist, Data Analyst, Sr Data Analyst, Advisor, Sr Advisor with increasing pay bands and levels in that progression. So... an experienced employee titled only a "Data Analyst" in this scenario is of a higher level than a more junior employee who is a "Sr Data Specialist". Title progressions like this can vary across the org, so it's best to ballpark whether the role is a match for you by researching pay scales on GlassDoor, etc (or the new advertised scales that some companies are posting for remote workers on LinkedIn due to state requirements).

Hiring managers are most concerned with matching your demonstrated skills and anticipated capabilities with their needs; if you can convince them that you are the best candidate for the job, then maintaining the relative YoE integrity of the "Sr" title is secondary and only a concern if they think it is going to affect the morale of more tenured internal team members who applied that they are "passing over".
