About Our Client
Our client is a
no-code drag-and-drop platform
designed to make building and deploying AI workflows fast and intuitive. Their platform enables companies to
visually design AI pipelines
, connecting data sources with powerful Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT to automate complex business processes.

Their customers use the platform to build solutions such as:

• Chatbots & Assistants: AI agents that interact with users, answer questions, and complete tasks using internal data and APIs.
• Document Processing: Applications that summarize, extract insights, and answer questions from any document, no matter the length.
• Database Querying: The ability to ask GPT-like models questions directly about Notion, Airtable, Postgres, and other databases.
• Content Creation: Generating tags, summaries, and transforming data and documents across various platforms.

Role Overview
We're looking for a
dynamic Sales Specialist
to spearhead our startup's growth. This is a pivotal role focused on
prospecting and outreach
, helping us build and scale our sales pipeline from the ground up. As one of our first non-engineering hires, you'll play a key part in
shaping and executing our growth strategy
, driving new business opportunities, and connecting with top-tier clients.

Key Responsibilities

• Prospecting & Outreach: Identify and engage potential clients through strategic initiatives such as LinkedIn, email outbound campaigns, Sales Navigator, cold calling, events, and conferences.
• Use tools such as Apollo, Instantly, and Sales Navigator to build and manage outreach campaigns.
• Meeting Generation: Book qualified meetings for the sales team — you won't need to run the meetings yourself, just make sure the right doors are opened.
• Relationship Building: Establish and nurture connections with key decision-makers, including executives, directors, and procurement teams.
• Content Creation Support: Assist in creating engaging sales content like short product videos, tutorials, case studies, and targeted email campaigns to communicate the value of our AI solutions. (Note: advanced content creation is a nice-to-have, not a requirement.)
• Support basic sales enablement initiatives, such as short demo videos or outreach content, when needed.

Requirements
Experience and skills:

• Experience: 3+ years in business development or sales roles, ideally within B2B SaaS or AI technology sectors.
• Enterprise Sales Exposure: Proven experience selling, sourcing, and prospecting into Fortune 1000 or large enterprise companies.
• Outbound Expertise: Hands-on experience with LinkedIn, email outbound tools, and Sales Navigator.
• Pipeline Generation: Demonstrated success in sourcing, prospecting, and generating pipeline for enterprise customers.
• Technical Curiosity: Comfortable learning enough to confidently communicate product value and translate technical concepts into clear, compelling narratives.
• Creative & Proactive: A self-starter who enjoys solving problems, managing multiple initiatives, and finding new ways to connect with potential clients.
• Communication: Excellent English communication and presentation skills.
• Tools: Hands-on experience using modern sales tools (e.g., Apollo, Instantly, HubSpot, LinkedIn Sales Navigator).
• Not a good fit: Candidates with limited experience (e.g., sending emails to sell online courses), poor English, or no B2B exposure.

Nice To Have

• Basic familiarity with AI tools — you don't need to be an expert, but curiosity and willingness to learn go a long way.
• Experience with simple content creation, such as producing short videos or demos to showcase a product (advanced skills are a plus but not required).

Benefits

• Competitive Salary: To be discussed during the interview
• Remote Work: Fully remote—work from anywhere
• Unlimited PTO: Ample paid time off to rest and recharge
• Direct Mentorship: Grow through guidance from international industry experts
• Learning & Development: Ongoing access to resources for professional growth
• Global Networking: Work and connect with professionals around the world
• Work-Life Balance: Flexible hours that support a healthy work-life balance
