"I love to present to groups - from thousands at tradeshows to small groups at a conference table. The constantly changing demands of the clients and the excitement of always facing a new set of challenges makes being a sales engineer fun. There is usually a lot of travel and I really like that, but my favorite part of the role are the commission checks every month. That is awesome!"
