Business Development Representative (BDR)

Why Shuttlebase?

Every day, millions of people decide whether to buy something online, and the reasons behind those decisions are still mostly guesswork. We want to change that.

We're working to quantify human psychology : to build an embedding model for human behavior that understands how people react to a page, a price, or a single sentence, and can predict what will work before anyone runs a test.

Every experiment our AI runs on a live store teaches that model something about how people decide. Our goal is for any company to be able to ask, " I'm selling product X to audience Y, how do I optimize for Z?" and get an answer it can trust.

We're early and well funded. The people who join now will pick the tools, design the models, and help choose who joins next. If that's a problem you want to spend the next few years on, we'd like to meet you.

The Role We don’t hire traditional BDRs. We hire founder-minded growth builders who thrive on experimentation and creating impact. As one of the first U.S. BDRs, you’ll own outbound prospecting, generate high-quality opportunities, and help define how Shuttlebase connects with customers. You’ll work closely with founders and AEs, learning the platform inside and out while shaping the GTM playbook from day one.

What We Value

• Curiosity and excellence : We're trying to understand why people decide what they do, so asking questions is the job. We push on each other's ideas, and a failed experiment teaches us as much as a winning one.

• Whatever it takes : If something needs doing, whoever can do it does it, whatever their title. Our clients' results are our results.

• Ownership : Shipping something is where the work starts. You follow it all the way to the result, and when you get something wrong, you say so and fix it. We keep our promises, the big ones and the small ones.

• Agility : Most ideas go from whiteboard to working prototype in two or three days. If something isn't working, we drop it fast, and nobody holds it against you.

• Enjoy the ride : Building something new comes with rough weeks. We get through them together and celebrate the good ones.
