business development associate

Location: Bangalore HSR Layout (Work from Office) Experience: 1–2 years preferred Compensation: Fixed + sales and performance incentives

About the Role

This is a Founder's Office role with a strong focus on business development.

You'll work directly with the founders to identify opportunities, speak with business owners, understand their challenges, and position Kumo as their long-term AI and software partner.

This isn't a traditional SDR role where you're only expected to book meetings. You'll be involved throughout the sales process and will learn how high-value B2B sales works.

What You'll Do Find and qualify businesses that could benefit from AI and custom software. Reach out to founders and decision-makers through outbound channels. Conduct discovery calls and understand business challenges. Position AI and software solutions based on business needs. Follow up consistently and move opportunities toward closure. Work closely with the founders on sales strategy, messaging, and execution.

Who We're Looking For

More than your résumé, we care about your mindset ( full time job exposure - Fresher we are not considering).

We're looking for someone who is:

Confident speaking with founders, CXOs, and business owners. Naturally curious and enjoys talking to people. Comfortable with outbound sales and handling rejection. A hustler who takes ownership instead of waiting for instructions. Eager to learn about AI, software, and technology. Ambitious and looking for a long-term career in B2B sales. Experience Around 1–2 years of experience in sales, business development, or client-facing roles is preferred. Experience in software or IT services sales is a plus, but not mandatory. If you've consistently exceeded targets, learned quickly, and can demonstrate strong sales ability, we'd love to hear from you.

About Kumo
