DevRev
DevRev’s AgentOS, purpose-built for SaaS companies, comprises three modern CRM apps for support, product, and growth teams. It connects end users, sellers, support, product people, and developers, reducing 9 business apps and converging 6 teams onto a common platform.
Unlike horizontal CRMs, DevRev takes a blank canvas approach to collaboration, AI, and analytics, enabling SaaS companies to increase product velocity and reduce customer churn. DevRev is used by thousands of companies in search of low latency analytics and customizable LLMs to thrive in this era of GenAI.
Headquartered in Palo Alto, California, DevRev has offices in seven global locations. We have raised $100 million in funding from investors like Khosla Ventures and Mayfield at a $1.1 billion valuation. We are also honored to be named on the Forbes 2024 list of America’s Best Startup Employers. Founded in October 2020 by Dheeraj Pandey, former co-founder and CEO of Nutanix, and Manoj Agarwal, former SVP of Engineering at Nutanix, DevRev continues to push the boundaries of innovation, helping thousands of companies thrive in the rapidly evolving landscape of AI-driven SaaS.
We are seeking a motivated and results-driven Product Development Representative (PDR) to join our demand generation team. The PDR will play a key role in generating meetings with qualified prospects, by optimizing our inbound demand generation engine - scheduling, qualifying, driving effective discovery calls and preliminary demos, and iterating on pre-meeting messaging across channels. The ideal candidate is a proactive, tech-savvy professional with a passion for sales and a deep understanding of SaaS products.
As a Product Development Representative, you’ll manage a queue of inbound leads, research them on the internet, call them to understand their needs, qualify their interest, and create opportunities for Account Executives. You will learn to understand the important needs of our prospects and communicate the core values of the DevRev platform with the goal of scheduling a discovery call with them, and depending upon the account and use case, you will also drive the initial discovery and preliminary platform demo.
We’re looking for outcome-driven professionals, who believe in teamwork, and demonstrate high levels of discipline, curiosity, and grit. A tenacious, self-starter will be the perfect fit.
