Founding Sales Development Representative (SDR)

Why Peerbound

The following information provides an overview of the skills, qualities, and qualifications needed for this role.

Every B2B buyer wants to hear from a company's current customers before making a buying decision. As AI makes every market 10x more competitive, a company's ability to unlock and activate the voices of its happy customers isn't just a nice-to-have; it's the only moat. Peerbound makes this possible at scale.

Today, we do this for leading B2B SaaS companies like AlphaSense, Braze, Canva, Databricks, G2, Gong, and more. We have the rare opportunity to disrupt not just multiple old-school software vendors, but entire categories of software, services, and labor.

Our core values are Dazzle Customers, Deliver Results, and Demand Excellence. We recruit people with a demonstrated track record of excellence and give them the room to do the best work of their lives. If this sounds like the environment where you do your best work, we invite you to build with us.

We are proud to be an NYC company, working hard in-person at our office near Penn Station. Our founders helped build Braze and Datadog, two of the city's biggest IPOs, and we're backed by the venture investors behind Square, Instacart, Airtable, and Webflow.

Why Now

We spent two years earning product-market fit the hard way: 35+ enterprise customers who pay us real money and keep doubling down. Now, we are stepping on the gas.

The product wows on the first demo, the ICP is clear, and every GTM leader we talk to feels the pain we solve. What we need now is a high-agency individual with leadership potential who can build a repeatable, scalable sales motion on top of this strong foundation.

We are ready to build the outbound capabilities around them. This is still a founding role: the outbound playbook is early, the territory is wide open, and you'll have a direct hand in shaping how Peerbound builds pipeline.

What You'll Do

Your job is to generate qualified pipeline for our founding AEs. This is a purely outbound, hunter role for someone who wants to build a successful career in tech sales. You'll work closely with our AEs and Head of Marketing to sharpen messaging, positioning, and feedback loops.

Hustle every day . We expect you to own outcomes from Day 1 and act like a leader. You'll have support and context from the team, but you need to be self-motivated and deliver results. The right person is highly competitive, cares intensely about winning, and has a chip on their shoulder.

Book meetings through any channel that works . Cold calls, email, LinkedIn, events, creative plays. We don't care how you get the meeting as long as it's with the right person and they show up ready to talk. We expect a well-rounded seller who can work multiple channels, not just one.

Build the outbound playbook. We have early messaging and sequences that are working, but we want you to test, iterate, and build on what works. Our CRM is clean, the market is wide open, and customers love the product. The territory is yours to run.

Who You Are

You ideally have 1-2 years of experience in an SDR role, but we are open to entry-level candidates with a demonstrated track record of excellence and outstanding performance.

You're fast. You can learn a new product, a new market, and a new buyer persona quickly and start producing before anyone expects you to. You're agile on the phone, sharp in writing, and know how to cut through the noise. You can think on your feet when a prospect pushes back and adjust your approach in real-time.

Beyond the metrics: you're hungry, coachable, and competitive in the way that raises the bar for everyone around you. You want to be at a company where your work is visible, your growth is fast, and you have a clear path to AE in 12 months. 

Compensation

$90,000 to $100,000/year OTE, plus meaningful equity and benefits (fully covered medical, vision, and dental, 401K, and flexible PTO). In-person 5 days a week in our NYC office near Penn Station.

Note from the CEO

This company represents my life's work. I've been part of two IPOs, and I want to build the kind of company at Peerbound where working here marks an inflection point in everyone's career, and leads to the kind of bonds that last a lifetime.

We are at a point where it is key to have strong SDR hires. When I'm evaluating talent for this role, I weigh future leadership potential highly because I believe we're hiring the sales leaders of the future. I've seen SDRs at early-stage companies go on to become the best closers, leaders, and founders in their industries. xhyhwjd That trajectory starts with someone who's willing to do the work, learn fast, and hold themselves to a higher standard than anyone asks of them.

If this is you, we'd love to meet you.
