Our platform, Ubuntu, is very widely used in breakthrough enterprise initiatives such as public cloud, data science, AI, engineering innovation, and IoT. Our customers include the world’s leading public cloud and silicon providers, and industry leaders in many sectors.

You should also be open to innovation, and experiment with new outbound approaches to adapt to changes in the market. In this role your primary objective is to manage and mentor a successful team of 2-10 SDRs / BDRs, and maintain a multi-million dollar pipeline.

We value:

* Bachelor’s or equivalent degree in Business or STEM
* Knowledge and passion for business development, sales and technology
* Track record of bringing exceptional outbound sales development results
* Commitment to continuous learning and improvement – curious, flexible, scientific
* Creative problem solving and cross team collaboration
* Leadership experience of one form or another
* Able to use data to drive team activities and continuous improvement

### What we offer you

Sample interview questionsHow would you manage and develop a team of SDRs with different experience levels?I would set clear activity, quality, and pipeline expectations while creating individual development plans for each representative. Regular one-to-ones, call reviews, role-play sessions, and data-led coaching would help identify gaps and build repeatable strengths.

What metrics would you use to evaluate BDR team performance?

I would track leading indicators such as outreach volume, response rates, connect rates, meeting conversion, and lead follow-up speed, alongside outcome metrics including qualified opportunities, pipeline value, and opportunity conversion. I would assess metrics in context to avoid rewarding activity that does not create quality pipeline.

How would you improve an outbound motion that is not producing enough qualified opportunities?

I would first diagnose the issue through segmentation, messaging, channel, activity, and conversion data. Then I would run controlled experiments on account targeting, personas, value propositions, sequences, and coaching, scaling only the approaches that improve qualified-meeting and pipeline outcomes.

How do you maintain team culture in a fully distributed sales organization?

I would establish consistent communication rhythms, transparent goals, peer learning, and recognition of both effort and outcomes. I would also create structured opportunities for representatives to share successful approaches, practice skills together, and receive timely feedback.

How would you balance mentoring team members with responsibility for a multi-million-dollar pipeline?

I see coaching and pipeline ownership as connected responsibilities. By building clear operating cadences, dashboards, qualification standards, and coaching routines, I can help the team improve its capability while maintaining visibility and accountability for pipeline health.
