They are the trusted advisor to both customers and the Sales Representative as the Splunk team collaborates to find the right solution for the business scenarios that are most important to the customer. Solutions Engineers tinker with the tech and translate it for a business ear. The ultimate goal, of course, is the success of the customer.
