Our previous posting for the new sales hire took a wishy-washy position around whether we hire an account executive, sales engineer, or something else, looking to the candidate to help us decide. After getting enough experience talking to real candidates and thinking on this some more, I've concluded that we are essentially looking for a senior sales engineer (sometimes known as a solutions engineer) who can sell. I've updated the job posting accordingly.
