About the role

About the Role

We're a fast-growing, seed-stage voice AI company building the future of automated customer call operations for B2C businesses. Our platform enables companies to handle sales, support, and operational tasks across millions of calls using intelligent, human-like AI agents - and we're just getting started.

We're looking for our first sales hire - a Founding BDR who will own pipeline development, shape our go-to-market playbook, and lay the foundation for a scalable sales engine. This is a rare opportunity to join at the ground floor of a high-demand product with strong early traction.

What You'll Do

Generate qualified pipeline with the goal of helping 10x revenue over the next year.

Identify the right prospects and engage them through targeted, thoughtful outreach.

Drive multi-channel outreach across email, LinkedIn, and phone.

Build and nurture relationships with prospective and existing customers.

Manage pipeline and maintain CRM tooling to ensure clean, accurate data.

Shape the GTM motion - build a repeatable sales process and continuously refine outreach strategies.

What We're Looking For

Required:

Proven experience in a Sales or Business Development role - early-stage startup experience is a strong plus.

Track record of building GTM motions and repeatable sales processes from scratch.

Demonstrated ability to generate qualified pipeline and contribute meaningfully to revenue growth.

Proficiency with multi-channel outreach (email, LinkedIn, phone) and CRM tools.

Strong business acumen - ability to understand and articulate the needs of different companies and industries.

Fluency in both English and German.

Nice to Have / Strong Fit If You:

Have consistently exceeded targets or KPIs in previous roles.

Thrive in fast-moving environments and aren't afraid of unglamorous, hands-on work.

Have experience selling into B2C or SaaS companies.

Want to work on-site 5 days a week in Berlin alongside a small, high-caliber team.
