Role Overview

We're looking for a Sourcing Analyst who lives on the phone. Your job is simple: find software company founders and get them talking to us. You'll cold call, show up at conferences, fly out to meet founders, and do whatever it takes to start conversations that turn into acquisitions. This is a high-volume, high-energy role for someone who thrives on rejection, loves the chase, and knows how to get past gatekeepers

• Fearless on the phone: you don't take rejection personally and you know how to keep a conversation going

• Organized enough to manage a high volume of conversations without letting anything slip
