About the Role
LlamaIndex is growing its Business Development team. In this role, you'll generate qualified meetings and pipeline for our Account Executive team through a mix of inbound MQLs, product-qualified leads (PQLs) from platform signups and usage signals, targeted outbound prospecting, and event-driven pipeline generation. You'll work closely with your paired AE(s) to turn that interest into qualified conversations with technical and business buyers evaluating LlamaIndex.
Responsibilities
Qualify and work inbound MQLs and product-qualified leads (PQLs) surfaced from platform signups and usage signals.
Build and run targeted outbound campaigns to generate net-new pipeline.
Represent LlamaIndex at industry events and developer meetups, turning conversations into qualified meetings.
Research accounts and identify the right contacts, targeting technical and business buyers, including engineers, data teams, and AI/product leaders.
Build and test outbound messaging across channels, iterating on what actually gets replies.
Partner closely with your paired Account Executive(s) on account strategy and handoff.
Hit weekly meeting and pipeline-generation targets.
Use AI tools to speed up account research, message drafting, and prospect enrichment.
Keep CRM records accurate on outreach, meetings booked, and lead status.
Required Qualifications
6–24 months in a BDR/SDR or pipeline-generation role, with some evidence of self-sourced meetings, not purely inbound.
Comfortable reaching out to and qualifying technical buyers, including engineers, data, and AI/ML personas.
Strong written communication. Outreach that reads like a person wrote it, not a template.
AI-first: active user of ChatGPT, Claude, or similar for research, prospecting, and outreach drafting.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience at a startup or high-growth company, ideally technical SaaS, developer tools, data infrastructure, or AI/ML products.
Experience working a mix of inbound and outbound pipeline generation.
Exposure to product-led growth motions (PQLs, self-serve signups) is a plus.
