Job description

This is a great role at the intersection of marketing and sales to start a career in fast-growing international startups.

We are looking for a Business Development Specialist who will be part of the sales team and be responsible for prospecting, qualifying, and generating new sales leads to support the global sales team.

The business development team consists of people who are enthusiastic about finding various strategies to reach relevant customers, come up with new ideas to explain the benefits of AppSamurai's products, and connect them with the sales team.

As a business development specialist, you'll be able to build your industry network, understand how technology products are marketed and sold, and be part of an international team where you can quickly see the results of your efforts.

Career Path

This role's career path can evolve into a sales career, pre-sales engineering career, digital marketing career, or a career in customer success operations. The best part is AppSamurai offers these career paths based on your ambitions.

Storyly, built by AppSamurai, is an AI-powered content experience platform. Brands use it to add interactive, mobile-native formats (stories, video feeds, swipe cards, canvases) to their apps and websites, personalize them with AI, and tie them to goals like conversion and retention. We work with eCommerce, finance, and betting companies internationally. Integration is a one-time SDK install; after that, marketing and product teams run everything without code.

You can also use the nonintrusive power of storytelling in your monetization design. Only on Storyly, natively (iOS, Android, Flutter, React Native). Once the SDK is integrated, everything else can be done by marketing, CRM, or product teams without code. #nocode
