Any techies in the bay area looking for work? |
|
We really need to hire some System Engineers (pre-sales) who would not be in the field - and would work out of the home office in Palo Alto.
Sales experience is not as important as tech background.
Sorry to spam like this, but I know there are a bunch of DU'ers looking for work....and there are others who want to move to the bay area...

7. Hey I was never an SE before I took this job |
|
And it's an easy learning ramp. The job is meant as an entryway for those who have the tech, and want to become field SE's.

The first quarter will be rough, since your pay is 80/20 with 20 being comission...and they pay you based on a very conservative guess on what target should be.
But after the 1st quarter, your check goes up big time.
