About The Position

Kintsugi is building the modern tax infrastructure that high-growth businesses rely on — a frictionless platform that automates sales tax, nexus tracking, filings, and compliance for ecommerce, fintech, and software companies. As we scale rapidly, we’re expanding our Business Development team to help reach the thousands of founders, operators, and finance leaders who need a better way to solve sales tax. We have raised 30 million in funds and are in hyper-growth mode. If you thrive in fast-paced environments, love talking to prospects, and want to shape the foundation of a category-defining outbound engine, we’d love to meet you. We’re looking for a motivated Sales Development Representative (SDR) with 12+ months of outbound B2B SaaS experience, ideally targeting finance, operations, or revenue leaders. You are energized by conversations, skilled at crafting tight messaging, and eager to help build a world-class outbound machine from the ground up. You’ll partner closely with our Account Executive team to generate pipeline, experiment with new outreach strategies, and introduce prospects to Kintsugi’s mission of modernizing tax automation for high-growth companies.
