About Us
Tildei is an AI-powered marketing platform that creates intelligent brand agents for commerce and marketing conversations. We build comprehensive, custom Brand Knowledge Graphs from product catalog, marketing materials, FAQs, and brand guidelines.

Tildei, based in NY, was founded by serial entrepreneur Mark Ghermezian, the co-founder and founding CEO of Braze (BRZE), and led the company as its founding CEO, pioneering a new category from ideation to IPO (Braze IPO’d in November 2021).

The Opportunity
We are seeking an experienced Founding Business Development Representative (BDR) with a proven track record of generating qualified sales leads via cold outbound prospecting.
You will be joining Tildei at an early and pivotal stage. In addition to prospecting and supporting the founders, you'll be instrumental in shaping our product, processes, and culture.
To excel in this role, you'll need a strong foundation in best practices of outbound prospecting, a deep understanding of the tools needed to execute it at scale, and an unparalleled ability to write strong email copy. The right fit is a motivated hunter that can hit their numbers with minimal support, learn quickly, and ideate creative outbound campaigns that cut through the noise.
In this role you'll be supporting our founding team and an AE by booking them meetings with qualified leads. Given the dramatic increase in cold emails over the past few years, to excel in this role you must leverage your creativity, organization, and attention to detail in order to get your message through to marketing leaders.
This is a full-time, permanent position. If you are in the NYC area, we follow with a "4 days in, 1 day work-from-home" hybrid work environment in NYC (Chelsea). If you are elsewhere in the US, this position can be fully remote. This role pays a competitive salary and commissions and reports directly to a cofounder.
In this position you will...
- Run experiments to find creative ways to connect with our ICP.
- Craft creative outbound campaigns that are truly unique and stand out from the clutter.
- Execute outbound prospecting at scale by utilizing the right tools. Experience leveraging AI tools for outbounding a plus.
- Book meetings with qualified leads.
- Set the pace as a leader amongst the team and help us scale.
You have...
- 1+ years of experience as an BDR/SDR or junior seller at a high-growth marketing technology (martech) startup with a proven track record of exceeding quota.
- Proficiency and experience using Hubspot and Apollo for prospecting (ideally).
- The willingness and ability to work out of our NYC office 4 days/week (Monday through Thursday - commuter benefits available).
We offer...
• Endless career growth opportunities by joining our team at the ground floor.
• A tight-knit, collaborative team who are passionate about building startups.
• Competitive salary, equity, flexible PTO, and robust benefits (medical, dental, vision etc.).
We’re focused on building and fostering a diverse, flexible, and inclusive space that allows our team members to thrive. We’re an Equal Opportunity Employer and consider applicants without regard to race, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, genetics, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status or any other basis forbidden under federal, state, or local law.

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
