BiteSpeed

About the role

Till Q3 of 2022, our sales and go-to-market function has been founder-led. Then we setup a small team of BDR & AE and were thankfully able to replicate our initial success.

We're now at a point where we've grown 10X in the past 1 year through the efforts of the founder and small sales team we built. We initially tested out Outbound prospecting ourselves to validate if there’s even a possibility to scale the efforts on this.

Our initial results from outbound prospecting have been nothing less than promising. Cold calling and LinkedIn are the top two channels that have shown great promising results for us. So, it’s time now to scale our sales team and we’re looking to hire a smart & energetic Enterprise Sales Manager - West(Mumbai) to convert the enterprise SQLs brought in by our BDR team's outbound efforts and bring in the $$$. Simple, right?

What you’ll do

• Tl;dr sell, sell and sell some more to get the $$$ in. But since job descriptions are supposed to be serious stuff, feel free to read on.
• Your day-to-day would involve talking to e-commerce business owners globally(large enterprises), understanding their problems & helping them understand how our product improves their lives.
• You’ll be responsible for the end to end sales funnel from generating leads to converting them over product demos and getting the $$ in via online and offline meetings.
• Writing creative cold emails/Linkedin messages which truly break through the noise (we've tried some wacky stuff in the past, we take this a little overboard).
• Playing the role of a trusted product advisor over sales demos to show customers how our product improves their lives.
• Keeping your ears to the ground to collect customer feedback and forming a pipe for regular flow of customer insights to the product team.
• Building the backbone for our sales process to scale for the next stage of growth.

What makes you a good fit

• Your childhood dream was to sell ice to an eskimo (brownie points if you've tried it).
• You have 4+ years of experience doing enterprise sales at a SaaS startup.
• You have stories of selling stuff to people (this could even be concert tickets, sports cards or something you made)
• You have a way with words and have a collection of the best cold emails you've seen and written
• You have a genuine interest in conversations with people

About the team

BiteSpeed started out in the dorm rooms of BITS Pilani when we hardly knew much about running a company, in fact most of us hadn’t written a line of code in our lives.

We were inspired by companies like Postman and Freshworks which have built market leading software companies from India and had a desire to create something world-class which we could be proud of.

So we jumped off the cliff and built a parachute on our way down (just as Reid Hoffman likes to say).

We could make a long, boring list of 20 company values but by now you probably do get a gist of the kind of people we are. We are young, ambitious self-learners on a journey to create a globally competitive software company from India.

About the role

We’re looking for a Technical Lead to join our founding team and lead our product development. If you’re someone who thrives on high ownership, can figure stuff out on your own and wants to be part of the zero-to-one journey, this might be for you.

Years of experience: 4-10

What you’ll do
 We’re at 10M requests per day, you’ll take us to 100M requests per day.

• Designing for scale: We have complex systems working overtime with a lot of moving pieces. It’s just going to get worse. We need to reimagine scalable & reusable LEGOs 🧩;
• Setup DevOps: Rome was not built without discipline, and we’re not aiming for anything less. We’ve got a lot of ground to cover and we need your help 🛠;
• Building the dream team: We need a Phil Jackson to get us a Rodman for our defence. A Dhoni to make our Rohit open. It’s going to be tough finding the right people and tougher putting them to the right work ;
• Prioritise and delegate tasks: What tech debt to fix while also building for current business requirements? How to get it all done in time using limited resources? 🧐;
• And after all of it of-course, be ready to jam to this every time we push to prod - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9QNUcrjtOs🔥;
