The role
You will be the first person on KubeNine’s sales team. Your job is to start conversations with CTOs, engineering leaders and founders at Indian startups, and book meetings for our co-founders. You will learn how B2B technology is bought, how cloud infrastructure works, and how to sell to technical buyers. The co-founders will train you directly.
What you will do
Research startups and find the right person to call, using signals like a new funding round or a DevOps job opening
Make 50 to 60 calls a day once ramped, and follow up through LinkedIn, email and WhatsApp
Explain KubeNine’s offerings in plain language and book meetings
Log every call and conversation in our CRM the same day
Practice calls in daily role-plays and review your call recordings with the founders
Sit in on the meetings you book, to learn how deals move forward
The role is phone-first. Research and prospecting tools will help you identify the right people to call; outbound calling and meeting generation will be your primary responsibilities.
