Thanks.

Please see my changes above. To be honest, I think most of it is redundant. A lot of the information you have given in the middle paragraphs would have been on your CV and your application form, and should have been covered in the interview. He should also already have your phone number and email address.
I would stick with thanking him for his time and saying you look forward to hearing from him. That's really enough.

It doesn't look/sound good to have two consecutive sentences starting with "also".

Thank you so much for your help. I really appreciate the work that you have done. Do you think this one is better?

Dear Mr,

Thank you very much for your time on Sunday for interviewing me for the position of Sales Engineer. It was a pleasure to learn more about the position and the company. I am very excited about the opportunity to join xxx and to be part of your team as my knowledge and skill set align perfectly with this role.

You are right. Thank you for your comment

Add a comma after "Sunday", remove "for" before "interviewing" and it looks good to me.
 
- Don't forget the surname of that person. "Dear Mr Johnson".
- Write "Thank you very much for interviewing me on Sunday for the position of Sales Engineer".
- You can write "skillset" as one word. That works better in the above.
