• A basic understanding of B2B sales or a genuine interest in learning it.
• Organization and follow-through you can juggle leads and deadlines.
• A self-starter attitude with a hunger to learn, experiment, and grow.
• Highly analytical & strategicyou can spot a business problem from a mile away.

• Curiosity about how digital products are built and taken to market.

You Will Impress Us If:

• You understand SaaS, product studios, or startup ecosystems.
• You have 3+ years in sales, BD, or a similar role (but if you're a hungry young outlier, we still want to hear from you).
