How we got these numbers
Every number comes from a US sales job posting on an employer's own career page (Greenhouse, Lever and Ashby boards) that is open right now and publishes pay. Each posting counts once, at the midpoint of its posted range. We only call a number OTE when the posting says so. We don't estimate, survey or fill gaps, and we don't publish a number from fewer than 5 postings. 144 open Enterprise Sales Engineer roles are in this report's pool; 118 publish pay.
