Business Development Representative (BDR) 

At Klaviyo, our mission is to help businesses own their growth. We empower creators, entrepreneurs, and e-commerce brands to build meaningful relationships with their customers through powerful data, automation, and marketing tools. As a Business Development Representative (BDR), you’ll be a key part of bringing that mission to life—introducing eCommerce brands to the Klaviyo platform, setting the foundation for long-term success.
