We’re YC-backed (W22), early, fast-moving, and already driving measurable results for customers.

We’re hiring a founding BDR to help us scale outbound and grow pipeline.

This role is heavily focused on outbound execution: cold calling, prospecting, qualifying leads, and booking demos. If you enjoy high-volume outreach, fast feedback loops, and getting better every week, you’ll fit in well here.

You’ll join early, but not at zero.

You’ll work directly with the founders on:

\- outbound campaigns across email and cold calls

\- scaling pipeline efficiently

Over time, the role can expand into:

\- account executive

\- partnerships

\- growth

\- customer success

\- GTM operations

We care more about energy, communication, coachability, and ambition than years of experience.

You might be a fit if:

\- you’re comfortable talking to strangers

\- you’re resilient and competitive

\- you want to learn startup sales at high speed

\- you like fast-moving environments

\- you’re highly self-directed

\- you want responsibility quickly

Requirements:

\- Fluent English

\- Able to work North American business hours

\- Comfortable with cold calling

\- Strong communication skills

Nice to have:

\- B2B SaaS experience

\- Prior outbound experience

Comp:

3\. Your compensation expectations
