The summary above was generated by AI

Business Development Representative: 

The Business Development Representative (BDR) helps generate sales for Account Executives (AE’s). Our BDRs are the first voice our prospects hear—and that first impression matters. As a BDR, you’ll be on the front lines of our marketing efforts, engaging with contacts who have interacted with our webinars, thought leadership content, events, and other channels. In addition to prospecting sales opportunities in the market, the BDR will collaborate with AE’s on targeted lists, planning outreach, and building prospect pools. The BDR role is critical in surfacing new opportunities for our sales team. Given this, the BDR role is a quota-bearing role. The BDR’s quotas will include monthly goals for the scheduling of qualified initial sales meetings led by an AE and building pipeline on their accounts. 
 

For strong performers, we have a rigorous upskilling and development program to prepare SDRs to enter our Sales Academy, leading to future quota-bearing roles such as Commercial Account Executive. 
 

What you'll be doing: 

  • Engage and qualify inbound leads from marketing campaigns and content interactions. 

  • Prospect into targeted call lists to identify potential opportunities. 

  • Nurture relationships with prospects and/or clients through thoughtful outreach and follow-up. 

  • Gather key information to assess fit and readiness for a sales conversation. 

  • Route qualified leads to your aligned sales team for further discovery. 

  • Meet regularly with your assigned Account Executives and communicate timely and accurately with the team to provide updates on weekly outreach activity, successes, and additional areas and prospects to target  

  • Track and report on individual progress to monthly and quarterly goals for initial sales meetings and pipeline sourced  

  • Meet and exceed performance goals, including lead conversion rates and monthly quotas. 

  • Maintain data integrity and manage lead records in CRM systems. 

What we’ll want you to have: 

  • A strong interest in building a career in Sales or Marketing. 

  • Previous experience in software or tech sales is a plus—especially prospecting. 

  • Familiarity with sales tools such as LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Gong, Nooks, Consensus, and Salesforce is a plus 

  • Track record of quota and/or measurable goal achievement 

  • Excellent communication and listening skills. 

  • Ability to multitask and thrive in a fast-paced environment. 

  • A results-driven mindset with a proactive approach to outreach.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
