About The Position

Maven AGI sits at the center of the hottest intersection in tech right now: AI and customer experience. While most "AI support" tools still focus on FAQs and deflection, Maven's agents actually do the work, autonomously interacting with customers, personalizing the conversation, and resolving complex issues, not just providing information. That's not a soft ROI story. It's the most direct cost-displacement case in enterprise software today: real human work, replaced, at a fraction of the cost, not "savings if you use it well," but savings because the agent did the ticket instead of a person. That's the pitch you get to walk into every enterprise deal with. Founded in 2023 by executives from HubSpot, Google, and Stripe, Maven builds conversational AI agents that don't just answer customers, they act: going into a customer's account, finding the actual problem, and fixing it, with no human required. Customers like Dell, ServPro, HardRock, Tripadvisor, Clio, and Thumbtack rely on Maven, with independently verified results — customers report resolving 70–93% of interactions autonomously — and G2 has named Maven a High Performer and Best Meets Requirements across multiple categories. Position Overview: As the Sales Development Representative (SDR) Manager at Maven AGI, you will lead and develop our SDR team while driving the expansion of our sales pipeline. You'll be responsible for building and scaling a high-performing team that consistently delivers qualified opportunities to our Account Executives, while implementing best practices and coaching strategies to enable team success.
