Title should be fixed to say Sales Engineer.

• rsynnott 7y ago
  A sales engineer is a type of engineer (as the term is used in US English; in some countries engineer is a protected term and programmers are rarely eligible for it).

    Sales Engineer typically means Pre-Sales. It's a supporting sales position, part of the sales organisation. I think the title is unnecessarily misleading.

    People who drive trains are also a type of engineer. I kind of get where the person you're responding to is coming from. It's not worth calling out when the article is aimed at the general population, which doesn't care about the distinction between a sales engineer and a software engineer. It would just be confusing without an explanation, and that explanation would unnecessarily bloat the story.
