## About this Role

As a Sales Development Representative (SDR) at Astronomer, you’ll be the first point of contact for prospective customers and a key driver of pipeline for the sales team. You’ll identify and qualify high-potential leads, introduce them to Astro, and set up meaningful conversations for our Account Executives. This role requires 4 days in the office at our NYC headquarters.

## What You Get to Do

  
- **Prospect & Outreach** – Research and engage potential customers through outbound calls, emails, and LinkedIn to build a strong, consistent pipeline.
  
- **Qualify Leads** – Assess inbound and outbound leads for fit across needs, budget, and intent to convert them into Sales Qualified Leads (SQLs).
  
- **Partner with Sales & Marketing** – Work closely with both teams to refine MQL-to-SQL conversion strategies and keep high-quality leads flowing.
  
- **Work Smart with Tools** – Use Salesforce, sales automation platforms, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator to track engagement and sharpen your outreach.
  
- **Stay Sharp** – Keep up with industry trends, customer pain points, and Astronomer's evolving value proposition so every conversation lands.
  
- **Hit Your Numbers** – Own your pipeline goals—outreach volume, meetings set, and conversion rates—and push beyond them.

## What You Bring to the Role

  
- 1+ years of experience in B2B outbound prospecting, business development, and/or full-cycle sales (internships included).
  
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with a knack for crafting outreach that gets responses.
  
- Resilient and self-motivated—you don’t get rattled by rejection and stay focused on the goal.
  
- Ability to break down technical concepts and connect them to what a prospect actually cares about.
  
- Ready to thrive in a fast-paced, in-person environment.

## Bonus Points If You Have

  
- Experience selling to technical personas like data engineers, analytics leads, or CTOs.
  
- Hands-on experience with CRM tools (Salesforce or HubSpot), sales automation platforms, or LinkedIn Sales Navigator.
  
- Exposure to the data engineering or analytics space—bonus if you’ve heard of Apache Airflow.

_The estimated total compensation for this role ranges from $90,000 - $115,000 based on leveling and geography, along with an equity component and a comprehensive benefits package. This range is an estimate; actual compensation may vary based on skills, experience, and qualifications._
