What your typical day would look like: 

• You start your day by meeting with your mentor to address any blockers and share some new ideas you’ve come up with. You discuss the team dynamics, the technical blockers that await you and the initiatives you could take to find the solution to your current challenges.
• You continue your morning by working on the demo environment tool, helping to make it more user-friendly. This is a tool that enhances the team’s ability to quickly pitch the Coveo product to a prospective client.
• Following lunch, you jump on a team call with the lead Solutions Engineer and Account Executive (sales rep) that is focused on the upcoming demo with a prospect. You have the opportunity to work on its elaboration and share your input.
• You then spend time writing tons of code for the new demo that has been requested for the Solutions Engineering team. You want to make sure it’s ready to share with the client in the upcoming call! 
• Before the end of the day, your manager has invited you to shadow a call with a prospective client. You listen in and learn more about the role that the field solution engineers have to play in the sales process here at Coveo.
