Technical Sales Engineer
Även känt som: Sales Engineer · Technical Account Manager
Sells technical products or installations by translating the customer requirement into a technical solution, and calculates what that solution costs and returns.
The technical sales engineer works between sales and engineering and builds the specification with the customer on which a quotation rests. Unlike an account manager, the conversation covers application, capacity and standards, and an error in the specification costs money later. Selection usually picks either an engineer or a seller, while this role stands or falls on translating technical options into a business argument.
