Job description

🏢 Company: SETR (Canada-based, Global Team)
🌍 Location: Remote (Canada preferred)
💰 Salary: CAD $60,000–$90,000 per year + performance bonuses
🕒 Type: Full-Time (Contract-to-Hire Option Available)
⏰ Hours: 9 AM – 5 PM PST

🌟 Why SETR

SETR is a fast-paced startup building next‑gen AI‑powered sales infrastructure. We don’t just book calls — we automate the entire sales process:

• Instant lead response with voice AI
• Smart qualification and objection handling that feels human
• Omnichannel follow‑up across SMS, WhatsApp, IG DMs, and email
• Seamless CRM + calendar sync so no lead slips through
• Continuous re‑engagement for no‑shows and cold leads
  

Clients plug us in and go from leaking leads to running fully automated sales systems in days, not months.

This is a ground‑floor opportunity. You won’t just “do tasks” — you’ll own systems that transform client businesses.

🔥 What You’ll Do

• Lead client onboarding calls and translate goals into working AI systems
• Configure and deploy AI voice + DM agents that sound human, handle objections, and book calls
• Build end‑to‑end automations using n8n, Make.com, GoHighLevel, Zapier, Slack, Twilio, and more
• Design multi‑channel engagement flows (SMS, email, voice, social DMs, CRM triggers)
• Test, stress, and QA workflows so they scale without breaking
• Continuously refine objection handling, re‑engagement, and sequencing to maximize conversions
• Experiment with agentic AI and autonomous workflows that operate end‑to‑end
  

• 3+ years hands‑on building automations in n8n, Make.com, Zapier, or similar
• Strong knowledge of APIs, webhooks, and CRM integrations
• Experience deploying AI agents (Vapi, LangChain, GPTs, Relevance AI, or similar)
• Confidence in client‑facing onboarding calls with clarity and leadership
• Builder mindset: you think in flows, document well, and own outcomes
• Bonus: scripting ability in Python or JavaScript for advanced logic
• Bonus: experience with agentic AI frameworks

🚦 Why This Role is a No‑Brainer

• Salary: CAD $60,000–$90,000 per year + performance bonuses
• Ground‑floor opportunity in a startup moving fast
• Build systems that replace entire setter teams and directly impact revenue
• Zero micromanagement — full ownership from design to deployment
• Immediate visibility: your work goes live fast and drives results instantly
• Work at the frontier of AI, automation, and sales psychology
• Clear path to grow into Automation Architect, Systems Strategist, or Team Lead

❌ Who This Isn’t For

• People who need hand‑holding or constant direction
• Consultants who prefer to advise but not actually build
• Anyone who can’t thrive in the pace and ambiguity of startups
