Inside Sales Representative

We’re not just building better tech. We’re rewriting how data moves and what the world can do with it. With Confluent, data doesn’t sit still. Our platform puts information in motion, streaming in near real-time so companies can react faster, build smarter, and deliver experiences as dynamic as the world around them.

It takes a certain kind of person to join this team. Those who ask hard questions, give honest feedback, and show up for each other. No egos, no solo acts. Just smart, curious humans pushing toward something bigger, together.

One Confluent. One Team. One Data Streaming Platform.

About The Role

We are looking for a highly motivated and results-driven Inside Sales Representative to focus on our most strategic existing customer accounts. In this critical role, you will be responsible for driving incremental revenue by strategically expanding our footprint within a dedicated patch of named customer accounts. This isn't just about booking meetings; it's about actively generating and qualifying pipelines by identifying new personas and surfacing fresh use cases to support our long-term partnership with these key customers. If you thrive on deep account research, creative prospecting, and progressing early-stage deals, this is the perfect opportunity to make a direct impact on our company's growth.

What You Will Do

• Execute targeted, high-volume outbound prospecting campaigns within a dedicated list of strategic named customer accounts to identify expansion opportunities.
• Focus on identifying new personas and uncovering new use cases within existing accounts to significantly expand our product adoption and revenue.
• Move beyond basic meeting settings by progressing early deal stages—actively qualifying opportunities, understanding complex pain points, and positioning our solutions effectively.
• Work closely with Account Executives to research and prepare materials that support executive alignment and complex, multi-threaded sales cycles.
• Maintain impeccable records of all prospecting activities and deal status in the CRM to ensure accurate pipeline reporting and forecasting.
  
  

What You Will Bring

• 1 years of sales experience, preferably in high tech
• Demonstrated success in an outbound-focused sales, business development, or SDR role, preferably within a B2B SaaS environment.
• Strong ability to research and penetrate large, complex organizations.
• The ability to understand complex business challenges, articulate value propositions clearly, and effectively move a sales conversation forward (beyond just an introduction).
• Outstanding written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to tailor messaging to different technical and executive personas.
• A highly organized, self-starter mentality with a relentless focus on meeting and exceeding pipeline generation goals.
