What it takes to do this work
We do not hold a licence requirement for this one. That usually means the route in is hiring and training rather than a classroom, but we would rather tell you we cannot see one than promise there is nothing to it.

The federal O*NET occupation index lists this as related to your kind of work, because the two share skills and day-to-day activities. It is a match on the work itself, not a record of people moving between them.
We keep those labels apart because they are different strength claims, and none of them means we watched individual people make the move.
Routes that already pay more than sales engineers are left out, because those are side moves rather than ways in. So are routes needing more schooling than you told us about.
