Founding Sales Development Representative (SDR)

Maintouch: SEO + AI SEO Automation
York, NY Full Time
POSTED ON 7/6/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 7/28/2026

The basics:

  • Maintouch builds AI agents to automate the trillion-dollar marketing agency industry.
  • We've grown insanely fast in the last 9 months, and power the growth systems for 50 of the fastest-growing companies in the world.
  • Marketing is a series of micro-decisions based on responses to data. Maintouch connects to all your marketing data sources to plan and execute growth strategies like an expert would.
  • I grew up working at my family's marketing agency. We're taking those learnings and using AI to automate all that work.
  • Lean team of 7. Ex-founders and experts working in person in SoHo, NYC.


Why join us?

  • You'll build the sales function from the ground up for what we believe can become the last marketing platform.
  • This is a founding seat with a clear, fast path to Account Executive. We're not dangling it as a someday maybe. You hit the bar, you start closing. The faster you prove it, the faster you move.
  • You'll work directly with founders, operators, and marketing leaders at some of the fastest-growing companies in the world, and learn to sell to them.
  • You'll be the person who turns raw outbound into a repeatable revenue machine.
  • If you eventually want to start your own company, there is no better place to learn how great customers think, buy, object, and commit.


The culture (read this part carefully):

  • We work in person, five days a week, in SoHo. This is not a remote role and it never will be.
  • This is a grind. We move fast, we make a high volume of dials and emails, and we expect the kind of effort that compounds. If you want a comfortable 9-to-5, this isn't it. If you want to get really good really fast, surrounded by people doing the same, it is.


What you'll do

  • Own outbound end-to-end. Prospecting, list-building, sequencing, cold calls, cold emails, social, follow-up. If it generates pipeline, you help make it great.
  • Run high-volume outreach across phone, email, and LinkedIn. Prospects should feel like you actually understand their business, not like they got blasted.
  • Research accounts deeply. Figure out who's worth pursuing, who the real buyer is, what they care about, and what would make Maintouch indispensable to them.
  • Build the outbound engine: sequences, call scripts, objection handling, target lists, messaging, and internal playbooks that make the whole motion sharper and more repeatable.
  • Talk to prospects constantly. Understand what's landing, what's getting ignored, what objections keep coming up, and what actually moves a deal forward.
  • Act as the connective tissue between prospects, founders, product, and marketing. Make sure what you hear in the market turns into action.
  • Build lightweight systems for pipeline tracking, follow-up cadences, conversion signals, and priority accounts.
  • Fill gaps, unblock deals, and make sure no opportunity falls through the cracks as we scale.


What we're looking for

  • 1-3 years of experience in a sales, SDR/BDR, or outbound role at a SaaS company preferred, but new grads are welcome to apply.
  • Demonstrable hunger to outwork everyone.
  • High IQ and high EQ. You can understand the product deeply and handle prospects with patience, clarity, and good judgment.
  • Strong writer. You can turn a cold prospect into a reply with crisp, human, well-targeted messaging.
  • Naturally competitive and relentless. When a prospect goes quiet, your first instinct is to find another angle, not to give up.
  • Calm under pressure. You can take rejection all day, handle objections live, and keep dialing without spiraling.
  • Systems-minded. If a line works three times, you turn it into a script. If a sequence converts, you templatize it.
  • Creative and resourceful. You don't wait for a playbook. You write one, test it, and rewrite it whenever needed.
  • Comfortable with ambiguity and rapid change.


Bonus if you have experience selling into SEO, content marketing, growth teams, or marketing agencies.


About the process

We move fast: screener → behavioral → mock cold call / outbound case study → in-person → offer.


Start date ASAP. No remote. No students.
