[Hiring] Sales Development Representative @LiveKit

Role Description

We're hiring an Enterprise SDR to drive top-of-funnel pipeline for our enterprise sales motion. You'll be the first impression LiveKit makes on engineering leaders, product organizations, and AI/ML teams at companies building the next generation of voice and multimodal AI applications.

This is not a boilerplate SDR role. Our buyers are technical staff engineers, heads of infrastructure, VP-level AI product leaders and they can smell a templated sequence from a mile away. You'll need to understand what LiveKit actually does, why developers reach for it over rolling their own WebRTC stack, and how to translate that into compelling, relevant outreach for each account you work.

You'll partner closely with our enterprise AEs and work directly with sales and marketing leadership to sharpen messaging and positioning as we scale our GTM functions.

What You'll Do

• Own outbound pipeline generation targeting Fortune 2000 accounts across key verticals: including healthcare, financial services, and technology companies.
• Partner tightly with enterprise AEs on account strategy; you'll co-own named accounts, align on entry points, and run coordinated multi-threaded plays to break into large organizations.
• Research target accounts to craft highly personalized, technically credible outreach via email, LinkedIn, and phone.
• Book discovery calls and product demos for enterprise AEs; provide full context so they walk in sharp and prepared.
• Work closely with the broader GTM org marketing, solutions engineering, and product on campaign strategy, ICP refinement, and feedback loops that sharpen our enterprise motion.
• Surface market intelligence back to the product and GTM teams as you're often the first to hear what buyers care about.
• Hit and exceed monthly and quarterly pipeline targets.

Qualifications

• 3–5 years of SDR or BDR experience, ideally at a developer tools, infrastructure, or voice AI company.
• Genuine curiosity about technology; you don't need to write code, but you should be able to hold an intelligent conversation about why a company might choose a managed WebRTC platform over a self-hosted stack.
• Strong written communication - you know the difference between an email that gets deleted and one that gets a reply.
• Experience with sales engagement tools and Salesforce.
• Track record of consistently meeting or exceeding quota.
• Comfort working in a fast-moving, early-stage environment where the playbook is still being written and flexibility is required.

Nice to Have

• Background selling to engineering, DevOps, or AI/ML teams.
• Familiarity with voice AI, real-time communications, or WebRTC concepts.
• Experience at an open-source company with a PLG motion - you understand what it means when a developer has been building with your product for 6 months before the first sales conversation.
• Experience using AI tools to accelerate prospecting and personalization at scale.

Benefits

• Competitive comp: Base + uncapped commission + equity. We want SDRs who want to win.
• An opportunity to build something truly impactful to the world.
• Contribute to open source alongside world-class engineers.
• Competitive salary and equity package.
• Health, dental, and vision benefits.
• Flexible vacation policy.
