About the Role

We're looking for our first SDR Manager to build and lead a world-class sales development organization from the ground up. This is a rare opportunity to shape the foundation of our go-to-market motion at one of the fastest-growing AI infrastructure companies in the market.

You'll be responsible for building an AI-native SDR team where technology amplifies human performance rather than replaces it. Your team will be the engine that drives pipeline across inbound, outbound, and product-led growth motions, and you'll create the systems that turn SDRs into successful Account Executives at scale.

What You'll Do

Build an AI-Native SDR Organization

• Design and implement workflows where AI assists SDRs across the full sales development cycle: territory planning, prospecting, email personalization, cold call execution, and meeting qualification
• Create a culture where SDRs leverage AI tools to amplify their impact and accelerate their learning
• Continuously experiment with new AI capabilities to maximize team productivity and effectiveness

Partner on Career Development Programs

• Work closely with leadership to execute structured career pathing that prepares SDRs for AE roles in 12-18 months
• Support the delivery of training curricula, shadowing programs, and skill development frameworks
• Help ensure seamless transitions and high AE success rates

Operationalize Multi-Channel Pipeline Generation

• Partner with cross-functional leaders to optimize inbound lead qualification, outbound prospecting, and product-led growth motions
• Build processes, playbooks, and metrics that scale with the business
• Drive accountability for pipeline creation and contribution to revenue goals

Lead and Coach

• Recruit, onboard, and develop a high-performing SDR team
• Establish a coaching culture with consistent 1:1s, call reviews, and skill development
• Drive accountability through clear metrics while fostering a supportive team environment

What You Bring

• 1+ year of experience managing or leading SDRs in a B2B SaaS or technology company
• Track record of hitting and exceeding pipeline generation goals
• Experience building processes and programs from scratch or in high-growth environments
• Deep understanding of modern sales tools, CRM systems, and sales engagement platforms
• Excitement about AI and how it can transform sales development
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to use data to drive decisions and optimize performance
• Excellent communication and coaching abilities
• Passion for developing people and building career pathways

Benefits include

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Daily lunch, snacks, and beverages
• Flexible time off
• Competitive salary and equity
• AI Stipend
