San Mateo, California, United States Observe Full time

Observe is a SaaS Observability product which enables businesses to investigate modern distributed applications 10x faster. We enable engineers to spend more time coding features and less time investigating incidents.

We are looking for a Sales Development Representative to grow with us as we build a reliable and secure lens for our infrastructure.

At Observe, our Sales Development team works closely with our partners in both Sales and Marketing to build fanatical customer enthusiasm around Observe. SDR's are responsible for identifying and qualifying new opportunities for our sales organization. We view our SDR program as the best way to turbocharge a long and successful career in sales and view our Sales Development Representatives (SDRs) as the next wave of Account Executives at Observe.

To aid in this endeavor, we invest heavily in the training and development of our team. This includes a 2-week long SDR bootcamp, bi-weekly group findings, weekly 1-1 mentorship and more. By joining our team, you are making an investment in yourself that will accelerate the rest of your sales career.

Our SDRs gain an understanding of our product, community, who we sell to, why they care, and what makes us relevant. They learn how to generate a pipeline quickly and effectively as well as how to achieve a good discovery and qualification. The team is a crucial resource for sales teams across Observe to get great talent from. This helps us scale our teams, as well as ensure that we have a culture of meritocracy.

Being a SDR is often a first step to jump-starting a career in sales. At Observe, we have a culture that celebrates diversity, fosters growth and enablement, and ensures that we provide our SDRs with the tools and the confidence that they need to grow their careers.

The SDR leadership team has a true understanding of where each SDR is at in their personal development process, and mentors and enables them to ensure that they have the means and opportunity to be considered for their next role. At Observe, we truly believe that if you want to earn your MBA in sales, this is the place to be.
