After some weeks another recruiter reached me by email saying that he received my resume from the recruiting team, and asking if I could be interested in applying for a Technical Solutions Engineer position ([1] or [2]). I'm sure he could provide me all the information I need, but I was also looking for an impartial and external point of view, so I'm asking here.

My doubt is that this role may be too distant from a generic system/software engineer position and not particularly inline with my academic degree: a MSc in computer science. I'm maybe wrong but, reading the information reported in the links, it seems to me that ultimately it boils down to a customers support job (especially [1]) and that it may give little to no advantage to one who plans to eventually switch to a different engineering position; I don't know... I'm perceiving this as a "backup offer".

In your opinion, is it worth to take this chance even if I'm interested in other engineering positions? Is my view about this somewhat biased by the rejection?

Thank you so much for your time.
