Official Job Description About the Role We’re growing fast — and are looking for a creative and driven founding SDR to join our sales team to accelerate our outreach efforts. As the founding member of the SDR team, you’ll largely write the playbook for future generations of SDRs and will flex your creative muscles to think about how to open doors for our sales team to have strong conversations with potential clients. In this role: You’ll learn to quickly capture attention on the fly, both by mastering cold calling or through hyper-personalized email and LinkedIn messages. You’ll manage creative campaigns for accounts that could be a good fit for us — thinking about the right message to send, how to reach out, and how to experiment to get better over time. You’ll field customer conversations for anyone interested in our free product and a sub-set of demos, honing your ability to communicate about our product and navigate sales conversations. You’ll keep potential clients interested in the solution when the timing isn’t yet right, nurturing and building relationships with them with invites to events and sending along updates. You’ll work closely with the go-to-market team, getting first-hand insight into the marketing, growth, sales, and partnerships teams. If successful, you’ll have substantially contributed to our growth and have laid the groundwork for others to join the SDR team. Over time, you’ll have the opportunity to grow into a full-cycle sales role, propel marketing efforts, or chart your own career path here. We’re growing fast and are excited for our SDR team to be a launching pad for careers across the company. About You You’re a recent grad (1-3 years of experience) interested in joining a high-growth start-up (and directly contributing to that growth). You have a hypothesis that sales or marketing could be strong fits for your skill set and are excited to dive straight in. You’re driven. You love a challenge and set ambitious goals for yourself. You have a track record of being disciplined, organized, and getting things done. You’re creative. Ideas just come to you. Brainstorming is your favorite activity, and you love thinking about new, compelling ways to convey a message, bring people together, or present otherwise stale information. You’re personable. You’re a natural communicator. You easily connect with new people and often strike up conversations with strangers. You’re a builder. You get excited about the idea of starting from the ground-up and building a strong foundation for years to come. You’re happiest charting a path & figuring things out for the first time.
