SalesSales Development Rep

This role offers the opportunity to build and scale an outbound prospecting motion for a leading developer-focused technology platform. You will combine hands-on sales development with team leadership, personally generating enterprise pipeline while managing an outsourced SDR function from day one. The position requires a strong understanding of technical audiences, compelling messaging, proactive prospecting, and data-driven sales development. You will refine cold-call and social outreach strategies, establish repeatable playbooks, and use real market results to improve the broader motion. As the function matures, you will have the opportunity to build and lead an in-house SDR team. This is a high-ownership role suited to a builder and coach who thrives in ambiguity, moves quickly, and enjoys turning early-stage processes into scalable programs.

Own and execute a full outbound prospecting motion through cold calling, email, LinkedIn, and other relevant channels.
Personally generate qualified net-new enterprise pipeline against defined targets while serving as a hands-on player-coach.
Take day-to-day ownership of an outsourced SDR team, assessing its existing processes, targets, activity levels, messaging, and pipeline contribution.
Develop, test, and continuously refine cold-call scripts, LinkedIn messaging, outreach cadences, and prospecting approaches.
Partner with hiring and sales leaders to understand target accounts, ideal customer profiles, value propositions, and pipeline objectives.
Coach and quality-assure the outsourced SDR function while holding the team accountable to activity, meeting, and pipeline goals.
Use activity, meeting, and pipeline conversion data to identify bottlenecks and continuously improve outbound performance.
Turn successful prospecting approaches into documented, repeatable outbound playbooks that can be adopted by other representatives.
Provide market feedback and insights from direct prospecting conversations to improve messaging and sales strategies.
Establish and achieve net-new outbound pipeline goals across both personal efforts and the outsourced team.
Prepare to recruit, onboard, coach, and lead an in-house SDR team as the outbound function scales.
Develop sustainable onboarding processes, coaching cadences, performance expectations, and pipeline targets for future SDR hires.
