• Contribute to our prospecting playbook what messaging works, which sequences convert, which ICP segments respond best

• Participate in weekly 1:1s with your Marketing mentor and bi-weekly team reviews with the broader BD function

• The full B2B sales motion from prospecting through deal close, including how each stage of the funnel actually works in practice
• Modern sales tech stacks CRM systems, intent data, sales engagement platforms, and how they work together

About the Team

You will be part of a 14-person sales and marketing organization built to run an end-to-end SMB sales motion. The team is structured around six functions Leadership, VP Sales, Marketing, Solution Engineering, Pricing, and BD Capture and the goal of the Prospecting function is to deliver a steady flow of qualified accounts into the top of our funnel.
