Business Development Representative

Evlo AI
Chicago, IL Full Time
POSTED ON 10/14/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 11/12/2026
About The Role

The role drives new business at the top of the funnel for a B2B SaaS platform: researching target accounts, starting conversations with prospects, and converting interest into qualified meetings for the account executive team.

This is the launchpad for a sales career. BDRs here get structured onboarding, weekly coaching, and a clearly defined path to Account Executive — and the work directly feeds the company's revenue engine.

Key Responsibilities

  • Prospect into named accounts via cold calls, personalized email sequences, and LinkedIn outreach
  • Qualify inbound demo requests and outbound targets against ICP criteria before routing to account executives
  • Book 10-15 qualified meetings per week and consistently hit monthly pipeline-generation targets
  • Research accounts and buyers to write tailored outreach grounded in the prospect's tech stack, industry, and pain points
  • Maintain accurate CRM records (Salesforce) of calls, emails, notes, and next steps — pipeline hygiene matters
  • Run discovery-lite conversations to uncover budget, timeline, and decision-making structure
  • Partner with marketing and sales leadership to test messaging, iterate on sequences, and refine target segments

What We Are Looking For

  • 0-2 years of experience in sales, customer-facing roles, or SDR/BDR work — high energy and coachability matter more than tenure
  • Strong written and verbal communication; comfortable making 50 dials a day and handling rejection
  • Familiarity with sales tooling (Outreach, Salesloft, Salesforce, or similar) is a plus
  • Highly organized with the discipline to manage a high-volume activity pipeline
  • Genuinely curious about technology and able to learn a technical product quickly
  • Bachelor's degree preferred but not required
  • Bonus: prior tech/SaaS exposure, experience selling into IT or engineering buyers, or a documented track record of hitting quota in any metrics-driven role
