What is a Partner Solution Engineer?

Also known as a "Pre-Sales Engineer", "Solution Consultant" or "Sales Consultant," the Partner Solution Engineer is responsible for understanding a partner’s business challenge and presenting technology solutions to evoke confidence in a company’s technology infrastructure, and to remove all technical objections in the sales cycle.
