SDR at Open Talent, NYC — $250K OTE Fintech Role

Most SDR roles are a slow bleed: weak data, low-urgency products, and managers tracking activity instead of revenue. The SDR position at Open Talent , based in the New York City Metropolitan Area , flips that model entirely. You own a desk, build territory, generate pipeline, close business, and get paid on results — no micromanagement, no hiding behind inputs, just scoreboard.

Inside the SDR Role at a Top 10 NYC Fintech

Open Talent is staffing this desk for a Top 10 NYC Fintech that has already shattered revenue milestones most startups take five years to reach. Over the past 20 months in market, the company has solved a high-stakes revenue problem, creating genuine client urgency and demand that pulls rather than pushes.

You are stepping into momentum, not theory. Market demand already exceeds outbound bandwidth, product credibility is established, and the only constraint is finding elite hunters who can execute.

What You Will Actually Do

• Dial 150+ high-intent cold calls daily using enriched, pre-qualified data with a clear ICP.
• Build and manage a multi-channel pipeline with full desk ownership.
• Operate 100% in the fight — no scraping junk emails or wasting hours on low-quality research.
• Hit and exceed monthly revenue benchmarks alongside an A* NYC hunter team.
• Turn performance directly into income through uncapped commission.

Who Gets Hired

This is not an entry-level stepping stone. To qualify, you need minimum 12 months of pure outbound SDR experience with full deal ownership in a real startup hunter environment. You must handle 150+ dials per day as a baseline, understand that volume paired with strong data equals serious money, and want autonomy rather than babysitting.

Rejection is part of the job; how quickly you move past it defines your ceiling here. If you are average, this floor will feel uncomfortable. If you are elite, it will feel overdue.

Compensation, Equity & Benefits

The financial upside is substantial. Verified compensation ranges from USD 100,000 to 250,000 per year , structured with up to a $125,000 base and a 50/50 split toward a $250,000+ On-Target Earnings figure. Commission is uncapped, and you will receive equity in a scaling, post-revenue fintech. Additional benefits include:

• Health, dental, and vision coverage
• Full-time, on-site role in a high-performance NYC setting

This is a verified, active opening posted on 2026-10-05, with an application deadline of 2026-12-05.

Interview Process Overview

Expect a fast, rigorous process with a decision rendered within one to two weeks. The three stages are:

• Culture & mindset chat — assess fit and mental approach
• Case study — demonstrate strategic thinking
• Live cold-call sprint — prove execution in real time

Practice pitching the fintech value proposition to a skeptical buyer: articulate urgency, confirm budget, and book a next step within 90 seconds. Be ready to discuss how you would prioritize a territory list using intent signals and ICP fluency.

If you are tired of weak data and low-urgency products, this is your opportunity to prove it. The market demand is already there — the only missing variable is you.
