Join one of the world´s fastest-growing companies.

Your Role

You own our entire US top of funnel – from first touch to a qualified demo handed to our Account Executives.

This is not a dial-and-pray seat with a script someone wrote three years ago. You'll build the sequences, test the channels and figure out what makes a dentist in Ohio or an HVAC owner in Texas pick up the phone and say yes.

And if you crush it, you won't be an SDR for long: top performers move into a closing AE role within months, not years.

What to expect
  • Qualify the inbound leads our marketing engine generates every single day – fast

  • Run multi-channel outbound: phone, email, LinkedIn – and test whatever channel comes next

  • Build and own sequences: form a hypothesis, test it, measure it, make it better

  • Book qualified demos for our AEs and own the quality of every handoff

  • Top-performing SDRs have a real shot at moving into an AE role within months

Who We're Looking For
  • 1+ years in sales, ideally outbound or telesales; B2B SaaS preferred

  • Excellent spoken and written English

  • Competitive to the core. You check the leaderboard, you want to be on top, and be one of the best

  • High output, high standards. You'd rather make 80 good calls than 30 perfect ones – and you still make them good

  • Coachable and curious. You test, take feedback, and get better every week

  • Excited about AI and selling a product that customers actually love

  • Based in or willing to relocate to New York City – onsite, office-first

What We Offer
  • $65k–$75k base + $30k–$35k variable (OTE $95k–$110k) + equity

  • Fast track to AE – promotion based on performance, not tenure

  • You’ll learn AI and voice tech faster than anywhere else, with a real path into Customer Success, Solutions or Forward Deployment

  • Lunch and dinner are on us. Every day.

  • Need a tool, course or book? It’s yours. No approval loops.

  • Your setup, your choice: pick the gear you want to work with

  • A product customers actually love: 4.5 stars on Trustpilot, Google and OMR. It mostly sells itself.

  • Equipment of your choice

Hiring Process
  1. 15 min Intro call

  2. 30 min Skill interview (incl. a short case study)

  3. 20 min Intro with our CCO

  4. 20 min Culture Call with our Founders
