The board carries the 120 most recent of 226 open sales engineer roles - the other 106 are in the full member search. The city chips read the employer’s own location line; a listing that names no city we can resolve stays searchable but sits out of them.
Open to remote only? 85 of the 122 sales engineer listings that publish a work model came back remote-first, and 22 more are hybrid. The other 104 say nothing either way - that field is one only some boards publish.
Posted pay only - no estimates
What 90 of these listings actually printed.
Every figure here comes from a live posting with a stated annual base range. Nothing is modelled, inferred, or averaged in from a survey - which is also why the sample is smaller than the board.

About Sales Engineer roles
The Sales Engineer job market currently shows 226 open positions across 77 hiring companies, based on available data. With 16 new roles posted this week, the market reflects ongoing, active hiring activity rather than a stagnant landscape. Companies such as Datadog, Databricks, Samsara, Natera, and Chainguard appear among the top hiring organizations, indicating demand from technology-oriented firms, particularly those in software, data infrastructure, and security sectors. These companies span a range of industries, suggesting that Sales Engineer roles are valued across multiple technical domains rather than being concentrated in a single niche.

Overall, the data points to an active but not necessarily oversaturated market, with established technology companies driving a notable share of hiring activity. Job seekers evaluating opportunities in this space can reference these figures as a general benchmark, while recognizing that individual listings may vary based on role specifics, location, and required technical expertise.
