I know this site is still in its infancy so many of you "Application Engineers" may not get this but I'd like to ask a question anyhow. If you are a CAD Application Engineer, what exactly does that mean to you? What are your duties specifically? I ask because I just accepted a job as an Application Engineer at a bigger company and I'm curious to know exactly what is expected of me.
At my previous place of employment, where I was the IT Manager / CAD Manager / Database Developer (SQL) / Web Developer (ASP.NET), I had always told my fellow drafters that if I ever won the lottery my dream job would be to just create applications without the hassle of any of the other IT-related tasks. So when this new opportunity came along my resume matched what they were looking for to a tee.
Going from ONE discipline (structural engineering) to a company where I will be responsible for supporting multi-disciplines I kind of get the feeling its going to overwhelm me. But I've always liked a good challenge so we'll see how it goes.
