About The Role

ABOUT THE ROLE

This is a Founding BDR role at a fast-growing, early-stage AI recruiting startup — a rare SDR-to-AE track opportunity where you'll build the outbound engine from the ground up and graduate into closing deals as you prove yourself. As one of the earliest business hires on a ~10-person team, you'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with the founders every day to shape the sales motion and drive mid-market and enterprise pipeline.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Source new sales opportunities through inbound lead qualification and outbound outreach campaigns.
  • Qualify prospects using a consultative selling approach.
  • Grow top of funnel through warm and cold outbound strategies.
  • Test and iterate on experimental marketing and go-to-market motions.
  • Maintain accurate, up-to-date CRM records on client relationships and pipeline activity.
  • Build toward a closing Account Executive role as the sales org scales.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

  • 1–5 years of experience as a top-performing SDR, BDR, or AE at a high-velocity startup or in finance.
  • Demonstrated track record of beating quota, rapid promotion, or consistently top sales performance.
  • Proven cold outbound success — you've gotten yourself into at least one significant opportunity through sheer hustle and creativity.
  • Comfort operating in a fast-paced, founding-stage, on-site environment.
  • Evidence of an exceptional achievement outside the day job — founding a company, winning a major competition, or equivalent.
  • High creative thinking and "clockspeed" — you implement process improvements and generate new growth ideas quickly.

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

  • Base salary: $110,000 – $140,000 USD annually
  • Commission on top of base
  • Equity with early-stage upside (pre-Series A)
  • Visa sponsorship is not available
