Business Development Representative
Jellyfish · Boston, MA · BDR
About the Role
We are expanding our BDR team with individuals who are excited to make an impact and help scale a high-performing, modern sales organization.
We are looking for highly motivated individuals with a strong track record of success, people who not only achieve their individual goals but also elevate the team around them. This role is ideal for someone who is curious, adaptable, and eager to leverage new tools (including AI) to improve how they work.
As a Business Development Representative, you will:
Own pipeline generation by strategically sourcing and engaging prospects (CTOs, VPs of Engineering, etc.) through outbound efforts
Use modern tooling, including AI-powered platforms like Glean and Google Gemini, to enhance prospect research, personalize outreach, and improve overall efficiency
Interact with C-level and VP-level executives across startups to Fortune 500 companies, engaging in both technical and business-oriented conversations
Partner closely with Account Executives on account strategy, messaging, persona-driven value propositions, qualification criteria, and deal progression
Contribute to pipeline and revenue outcomes, with compensation tied to both pipeline sourced and Closed ARR
Maintain and nurture relationships with prospects who may not convert immediately, building a long-term network and future pipeline
Continuously experiment with new approaches—including AI-assisted workflows—to improve conversion rates and outbound effectiveness
About You
You are excited to build a strong foundation for a long and successful career in SaaS sales
You are naturally curious and energized by learning, especially when it comes to new technologies like AI and how they can improve your workflow
You have a strong sense of ownership and take pride in your work—from written communication to sales calls to long-term relationship building
You are collaborative and team-oriented, eager to both learn from others and contribute to their success
You are competitive, driven, and have a track record of performing at a high level in whatever you pursue
You thrive in fast-paced, evolving environments and are comfortable adapting as tools and processes change
You have a baseline understanding of how AI tools work (or a strong willingness to learn) and are motivated to incorporate them into your daily workflow to drive better outcomes
Bonus Points If:
You have experience selling into CTO / VPE / Director of Engineering personas
You are passionate about sales process, tooling, or culture, and want to help shape how a modern sales org operates
You have experience using AI tools (e.g., Glean, Google Gemini, or similar) to improve prospecting, research, or outreach
You have a sense of humor—we take our work seriously, but not ourselves
A list of job experiences and qualification requirements is great, but humility, a performance-driven attitude, and a team-player approach are most important to us. We love to have fun and win in the process. We only hire people who have a passion for building great companies in an environment where a sense of humor is a must.
