The Graduate SDR will generate leads, conduct outbound campaigns, secure meetings for AEs, and collaborate on sales strategy in a fast-paced environment.
Data quality is the bottleneck of the AI era. Every Fortune 500 is trying to solve it. We're the team they call.
Today we're the data quality layer for accounts like Disney, Ralph Lauren, CBRE, HelloFresh or 2K Games. The industry is exploding because AI doesn't work on bad data.
We're scaling our SDR team in the US. This job is a perfect way to start an enterprise sales career by selling infrastructure to the most technical buyers in the market.
One of our SDRs recently went from SDR to AE in 9 months. The path is clear, and we expect you to walk it in 12.

What you'll actually do

- 100 dials/day to warm and cold prospects (the floor, not the ceiling)
- Internalize the script, then start booking intro calls for AEs
- Build your LinkedIn presence - we'll help you grow it into a real channel
- Sit in on every intro and demo call your AEs run
Months 6–12: scale and own
- Pre-qualify deeper; raise the quality bar on every meeting you book
- Start taking some intro calls yourself
- Run your own custom outbound campaigns - not just the playbook
- Work your first SMB deals end-to-end
- Train the next SDRs we hire
- Attend conferences, run field events, build your network
- Know your numbers cold and consistently exceed quota
How you'll operate
- Playbooks exist - use them. We have proven messaging, sequences, and tooling.
- High volume, high precision. Every email and every call should be sharp.
- Direct access. You'll work with AEs, Sales Engineers, the CRO, and the co-founder. No layers.

Requirements
