About the Role

We’re building the next generation of AI-powered sales software—and pipeline is our lifeblood. As an AI Native company building software for sales teams, our credibility starts with our own go-to-market execution. This role is critical in shaping how we apply AI to prospecting, engagement, and pipeline generation—serving as both a growth engine and a proving ground for our product.

You won’t just lead an SDR team—you’ll help define what modern, AI-powered sales development looks like. We’re looking for a strategic, execution-oriented SDR leader to scale our Global and Enterprise pipeline engine.

You’ll lead a team of one front line manager and 15 SDRs driving highly targeted, insight-led engagement into complex Enterprise and Global accounts. The successful candidate will be a natural coach, giving timely development and feedback enabling their team to ramp quickly.

You’ll partner closely with Sales, Marketing, Product, and RevOps to ensure our go-to-market motion reflects how modern buyers evaluate and adopt AI-driven sales technology.
