Founding Business Development Lead — DeepQ AI
Bengaluru | Full-time | On-site / Hybrid
About DeepQ AI
DeepQ AI is where companies solve business problems with AI — strategy, solution, and deployment, all in one place. You describe a problem in plain language. It runs at agentic speed and executes every step, with you in control throughout.
We are in beta, working with a small set of managed clients across BFSI, Retail, and Healthcare. The way enterprises evaluate DeepQ AI is simple — they bring a real business problem to a Bootcamp, and we solve it live in 60–90 minutes. That's how conviction is built.
We are hiring the first person who will open those doors.
The role
This is a founding Business Development role reporting directly to the CEO. Your one job is to get the right senior leaders — CXOs, Heads of Analytics, Function Heads — into a Bootcamp conversation with us.
You are not selling the product. The CEO runs the Bootcamp and closes the engagement. You are the person who makes those meetings happen — through your network, through thoughtful outreach, through building a real presence for DeepQ AI in the market.
What you'll do
- Build and run the top-of-funnel motion for DeepQ AI — identify the right accounts, the right people, the right moment
- Open conversations with senior business leaders across BFSI, Retail, and Healthcare in India, and over time in the Middle East and the USA
- Turn conversations into qualified Bootcamp meetings
- Represent DeepQ AI in the market — events, LinkedIn, partner ecosystems, industry forums
- Work alongside the CEO on account strategy and messaging that lands
- Build the outbound and networking playbook from scratch — you are the first, you set the standard
What we're looking for
- 4-6 years in enterprise business development, consulting sales, or analytics and AI services sales
- Track record of personally opening doors at senior levels — not managing inherited accounts
- Sharp business conversation skills — you can hold your own with a CRO or Head of Analytics on their problems, not just your pitch
- Robust written communication — your outreach reads like a person, not a template
- Judgement to qualify hard — a wasted Bootcamp slot is worse than no Bootcamp
- Comfortable being the only BD person for the first year — you build the motion, you don't inherit one
- You don't need a deep technical AI background — what matters is that you can get the right people in the room
Why this role
- You are the first commercial hire at a company that has a real product, real clients, and a founder who has spent 15+ years in data, analytics, and AI
- You report to the CEO and shape how DeepQ AI goes to market
- The sale is substance-led, not spray-and-pray — you'll be proud of the outreach that goes out under your name
- Compensation includes equity alongside base and variable pay
