About ContraVault

n

ContraVault is building AI-powered software for industrial construction companies to make estimating and bidding faster, more accurate, and less manual.

n

Our technology helps estimating and commercial teams analyze bid packages, extract requirements, automate takeoffs from engineering drawings, identify discrepancies, and move from RFP to pricing faster.

n

We're looking for an experienced US-focused SDR who can help us build pipeline and start meaningful conversations with decision-makers across the industrial construction and engineering space.

n

What you'll do

n

n
- Own outbound prospecting into the US market across email, cold calling, LinkedIn, and other channels.
n
- Research target companies, accounts, and decision-makers to identify high-quality opportunities.
n
- Engage prospects across Estimating, Operations, Project Management, Business Development, and Executive leadership.
n
- Build personalized outbound sequences based on the prospect's role, company, and current challenges.
n
- Run discovery-oriented conversations and identify pain points around estimating, takeoffs, bid volume, staffing, and turnaround time.
n
- Clearly communicate ContraVault's value proposition without relying on generic sales scripts.
n
- Qualify prospects and book high-quality meetings for the sales team.
n
- Follow up consistently with prospects across multiple touchpoints.
n
- Maintain accurate prospecting activity, notes, and pipeline information in the CRM.
n
- Experiment with messaging, ICPs, and outreach strategies to improve reply and meeting-booking rates.
n
- Work closely with the sales and leadership team to refine our outbound strategy and messaging.

What we're looking for

n

Must have:

n

n




- 3+ years of SDR/BDR experience selling into the US market.
n
- Proven experience with US outbound prospecting and cold calling.
n
- Strong understanding of outbound sales fundamentals and sales development.
n
- Comfortable speaking with US-based decision-makers over the phone.
n
- Excellent written and verbal English communication.
n
- Ability to personalize outreach rather than relying on mass-generated templates.
n
- Strong research and prospecting skills.
n
- Experience working with tools such as Salesforce/HubSpot, Apollo, Outreach, Salesloft, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, or similar platforms.
n
- Ability to work independently and take ownership of pipeline generation.
n
- Comfortable working with targets and activity metrics.
n
- Strong follow-up discipline and persistence.
n

n

What will make you stand out

n

n
- Experience selling B2B SaaS, AI, construction technology, engineering software, or workflow/automation products.
n
- Existing understanding of the US construction, EPC, engineering, or industrial sector.
n
- Experience selling to Estimators, VPs/Directors of Operations, Project Managers, Business Development leaders, or C-level executives.
n
- Track record of consistently exceeding SDR/BDR targets.
n
- Experience building outbound campaigns from scratch.
n
- Solid cold-calling ability — you can create curiosity and earn a meeting rather than simply read a script.
n
- Ability to understand a complex product and turn it into a simple, relevant business conversation.
n

n

What we value

n

We aren't looking for someone who simply sends 100 emails a day.

n

We're looking for someone who can:

n

Research → Personalize → Prospect → Create curiosity → Qualify → Book meetings.

n

You should be comfortable picking up the phone, having real conversations, handling objections, testing new approaches, and figuring out what works.

n

The role comes with significant ownership and growth opportunities as we scale our US sales organization.

n

If you've spent the last few years selling into the US and know how to create pipeline through outbound, we'd love to hear from you.
