Job Summary

We’re looking for an experienced, highly driven Business Development Representative (BDR) who thrives in a fast-paced, high-volume outbound sales environment.

If you have strong outbound sales experience, are comfortable spending a significant portion of your day on the phone, and know how to turn cold conversations into qualified opportunities, we want to hear from you.

Experience conducting client-facing sales demos or product demonstrations is a strong bonus.
