Doubt about Record of Employment with incorrect occupation

Hello. I worked for a company where I started as junior software developer and I was later promoted to software developer. Then I migrated to another company as software developer where I work until today.

My doubt is that when I checked the Record of Employment for the first company, the occupation field says "Junior Software Developer" instead of "Software Developer". Could this create an issue with the citizenship application if in my 5 years employment history I add the 2 positions (junior and non-junior) as different entries? I'm able to get a job verification job letter from the company that describe the 2 positions, but I'm not sure I would be able to have the occupation in the Roe corrected.

I get concerned both with the citizenship application as well with a possible future review after 5/10 years.

I don't think it matters a lot. Citizenship application just needs activity you were doing, not the title or designation.

Nothing to worry about. They are only checking where you were and what you were doing during the period before your citizenship application. So you'll just fill in that you were working at a specific job. I don't think junior or senior or just software developer means anything to them. They just want to verify your background.
The main things to look at is meeting the 1095 days I'm the 5 years before you apply, having no legal issues and file taxes.
