ideator
One who brainstorms
An ideator is someone who generates ideas, especially in creative or business contexts.
The term appears in corporate and design settings where brainstorming is formalized: She's the ideator on our product team.
It carries a whiff of business jargon, turning the natural human act of thinking up ideas into a job title or role.
