Hi,
I have BS and MS boh in Engineering. My potential job title at a large international semiconductor corporation is "PRODUCT MARKETING ENGINEER".
Will this job title qualify me as a NAFTA professional under the engineer category?
Or Does my job have to be hardcore engineering like circuit design, device characterization etc.
Thanks a lot!

Sushi
 
please help!!

Thanks for your reply Gunt! Most part of this job is non-engineering. The engineering part is statistical analysis which is not that much related to my EE degree. I won't be able to show courses on my transcript that relates directly to the job duties.
But my job title will be XXXX engineer. and I will discuss the mathematical part of this job.
Will it be enough?

Based on the title (wth is a "Marketing Engineer"?) and the fact that most of the work will not be engineering, I'm nowhere nearly as optimistic as gunt is.
 
The job title is actually highly workable. They would call it whatever they want. "Statistical Analysis Engineer", "Financial Modeling Engineer", "Supply Chain Engineer" or "Technical marketing Engineer".
There is definitely a large math and computing component in this job. However, that does not relate directly to the name of my degree, Electrical Engineering.

Does my job title have to be "electrical engineer", "circuit design engineer" for me to qualify?
 
When I hear Marketing Engineer: I hear "salesman", which is not TN job, but can be H1 job. Border guy will think this too. So you need a very 'technical' duty list on your letter.

"Math" is too broad: you could mean math in terms of calculating your commission.:rolleyes:
 
forget about that "marketing engineer" idea

Thanks for all the responses.
But no the job is far from sales.
Consider this: scratch the "marketing engineer" part. What if they give me a title of "process development engineer", or "statistical analysis engineer"
Job description could be : "conduct mathematical modeling of channel revenues of semiconductor devices. Drive processes and solve problems through multi levels of engineering and business. Analyze cost of device fabrication by each process layer."
Do you guys think it matches my EE degree well enough?
