About the role

Role Details

- Experience: 3 years+
- Function: Outbound pipeline generation
- Market: India, Mid-market SaaS
- Timing: India

What does this role do: Generate qualified pipeline by prospecting into India-based accounts. We are looking for a seasoned SDR professional to be a part of the inside sales team based out of our HQ in Hyderabad, India. You are expected to own building the sales pipeline through outbound channels to support the revenue goals of the business.

This is a pure outbound, hunter role. You own your target accounts (full TAM ownership) and pipeline creation end to end. Your day is built around reaching out, not waiting for leads to come in: cold calling, email and LinkedIn outreach, leading into discovery conversations and qualification.

We prefer self-starters who own the outcome and not just the activity. If there is a goal, you figure out what it takes to get there: more outreach, multi-threading into the account, pulling in internal stakeholders, whatever is needed.



We also want people who are passionate about outbound, who believe more conversations lead to more pipeline, and who enjoy the craft of it: researching accounts deeply, mapping every stakeholder across HR, Finance, IT and business, and understanding their pain points before the first call.

This is not a training role. You are expected to already know how to prospect, qualify, and handle objections.

- CRM Hygiene Management: Enter accurate and up-to-date information about leads, activities, and interactions into the CRM. Track progress and update sales opportunities accordingly.
- Deal Closure Push: Partner with sales to navigate through the internal red-tape of the prospect and build multiple champions to bring the deal home.

- 3+ years of outbound B2B SDR, BDR or inside sales experience .
