• Experience building SDR teams and processes from the ground up—including playbooks, hiring, and training.
• Strong individual contributor skills in cold outreach, multi-channel prospecting, and deal origination.
• Expertise with modern sales tools (e.g., Clay, HubSpot, Outreach, Salesloft, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, intent data platforms).
• Data-driven mindset with the ability to track, analyze, and optimize conversion metrics.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills.
