About the Company

Our partner is a fast-growing SaaS startup building the next-generation AI-powered go-to-market platform for B2B companies. Their product helps founders and executives turn thought leadership content into qualified pipeline and revenue impact — not vanity metrics.

You’ll gain firsthand exposure to startup sales strategy, outbound experimentation, and AI-driven GTM workflows—while working closely with the founding team to refine messaging, develop playbooks, and establish scalable processes for growth. This is a high-ownership opportunity ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is hungry to learn the craft of selling from day one.

Responsibilities

  • Craft and send highly personalized outbound messages that generate engagement
  • Conduct discovery conversations to qualify opportunities and hand off to Account Executives
  • Collaborate with leadership to refine outreach strategy, scripts, and positioning
  • Build repeatable outbound processes and tools to support future scaling
  • Track performance metrics and continuously iterate to improve conversion rates

Requirements

  • 1–3 years of experience in BDR, SDR, or outbound sales (preferably SaaS or startup)
  • Strong written communication and creative problem-solving skills
  • Highly organized, self-motivated, and comfortable in dynamic, fast-moving environments
  • Genuine curiosity about startups, go-to-market strategy, and AI-driven marketing
  • Strong desire to grow into a senior sales or revenue operations role
  • Bonus: familiarity with LinkedIn Sales Navigator, HubSpot, Clay, or Apollo

Why Join

  • Ground-floor opportunity in a rapidly scaling AI SaaS company
  • Learn directly from experienced founders and GTM operators
  • Significant equity upside and clear internal mobility (AE, Partnerships, or Operations)
  • $20K annual food stipend and relocation support for San Francisco
  • Comprehensive health, dental, vision, and mental health coverage
  • In-person, collaborative culture with regular team events and company offsites
