This is a fast-paced, high-impact role built for someone who thrives in high-volume outbound environments, knows how to consistently generate qualified meetings, and is motivated by exceeding goals week after week, and quarter after quarter.

• Collaborate closely with Field Sales and Marketing teams on account strategy, messaging, and campaign execution
• Consistently achieve and exceed weekly, monthly, and quarterly meeting and opportunity targets
• Take full ownership of your performance by tracking metrics, analyzing results, and continuously refining your approach
• Represent AiDASH alongside Account Executives and teammates at utility and industry conferences across North America

What we’re looking for

• 1+ year of demonstrated success in an outbound business development or meeting-setting role, with a strong track record against quota in B2B tech or SaaS
• Experience in high-volume prospecting environments, including comfort making 200+ cold calls per day using modern BD tools and techniques
• Exceptional organizational skills with the ability to manage heavy activity volume while maintaining a clean and accurate CRM
• A coachable, curious mindset with a strong desire to learn, improve quickly, and grow your career
• A confident communicator who can quickly learn complex industry concepts, understand customer pain points, and spark meaningful conversations

• Comprehensive Medical, Dental, and Vision Coverage: 100% coverage for employees and 80% for their spouses and children
• Health Reimbursement Account (HRA): 100% funded by AiDASH to cover medical deductibles
• 401(k) Plan: Begin contributing after three months of employment to prepare for your future. Currently, no company match is offered
• Parental Leave: Supportive parental leave with 16 weeks for primary caregivers and 4 weeks for secondary caregivers
• Generous Vacation Policy: Accrue 20 vacation days per year, plus enjoy an additional flex holiday to celebrate whatever feels most important to you!
• Winter Break: From December 25th through January 1st, we give everyone time off to recharge and enjoy time with family and friends!

We are proud to be an equal‑opportunity employer. We are committed to embracing diversity and inclusion in our hiring practices, and we promote a work environment where everyone, from any race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin, can do their best work.
