SalesJobs.Now is free for job seekers. Some links here pay us: a job ad network pays for a click on one of its sponsored jobs, a recruiting firm pays a referral fee when someone who came from here is hired, and a career tool pays a commission when you buy it. That costs you nothing and never lowers what you are paid. Roles whose links pay us can be placed higher in a list. "Featured roles" are openings an employer picked during a free trial with us; no employer can pay for that spot.
The posting
About the job
An AI startup building "Individual AI" (AI trained on the knowledge of a professional such as an accountant, coach or educator, with client data never trained into third-party models) is launching its business offering and targeting 60 enterprise deals by year end. This is a builder's seat, not a script-reading seat. SDRs run the whole process from outreach to close: fully owning smaller deals and driving larger ones with support from senior sellers, engineers, the CTO or the CEO.
Full-cycle SDR seat at an AI startup led by a proven IPO founder. Warm pipeline, own deals end-to-end. Los Altos or SF, OTE up to $130K.
About the company
Seed-stage AI company (~20 people, substantial funding) building "Individual AI" trained on a professional's own knowledge. Led by a founder who previously took a company from zero to a NASDAQ IPO.
