    I was insanely lucky and landed a job that starts when I graduate mechatronics in 2 months, sales engineer for control systems and automation tools. Usually you need some sort of seniority but the company decided to try to hire a junior this time instead. I’m so excited to start!

    Thank you for the insights. I was in the sales/finance industry at a high end dealership before transitioning into real estate and finally IT. After 6 years in IT i was promoted to management but within a yeae the company closed. Currently remaking my resume to better fit sales job as a whole

    I work at Snowflake as an SE. Most Enterprise SEs have a decade+ experience in a technical role. I worked about 5-6 years as a Data Scientist before switching, and I'm relatively junior. I think it's this way because our product is fundamentally technical, and plus in data.
    But Snowflake has opened up opportunities for non-technical folks to join the SE ranks specifically for Commercial accounts, so I think multiple paths can exist as you say. But I have never really heard of an SDR becoming an SE, especially in the data space.

      Agreed, it's very rare for an SDR to go to SE but I've seen it in a select few cases and most of the time they had a STEM background to begin with before being an SE

      Do you think 5-6 years of experience as a Data Analyst is good before getting a SE role like Snowflake?

One of my teammates was a head of data analytics for a well-known retail firm, but he focused on data engineering more than analytics if I remember correctly. you can definitely apply

    Hey I'm mech eng grad, and I have been working as a sales engineer in the HVAC industry for about 8 months now right after school in a medium size company.
    From managing client lists to creating powerpoints, assisting our sales team with their personal needs, developping relations with manufacturers, coming up with business plans, work on my current personal projects with engineer firms, and trying to find them to learn and grow as a professional, I feel like I could manage everything better with better tools. Do you have any softwares that you actually do use to help you organize your daily tasks and short-long term projects?
