About this role

Head of Sales Development

Location: San Francisco (in-office 6-7 days a week)

Compensation: $250k-$310k TC

Virio is building the next-generation B2B GTM stack - an AI-powered content engine that turns executive thought leadership into a pipeline at scale. We help the fastest-growing B2B companies go to market through executive-led content that drives revenue, not vanity metrics.

We're backed by investors and operators from LinkedIn, YouTube, HubSpot, Twitch, and Google. We’ve built a repeatable system for turning founder-led content into meetings, pipeline, and brand power.

If you’re obsessed with growth, want to learn B2B GTM from the inside, and thrive in high-velocity startup environments, this role is for you.

This is a full-time in-person position.

What You’ll Do

  • Own the outbound machine – Design and run the entire top-of-funnel system: targeting, messaging, automation, and execution across email, LinkedIn, and events.

  • Carry a quota – Personally source and close strategic opportunities alongside founders and AEs.

  • Lead BDRs – Train and manage a small team of high-output BDRs, ensuring they exceed pipeline goals.

  • Build scalable playbooks – Systematize prospecting, outreach, and meeting booking processes that can scale 10x.

  • Partner with Growth & Marketing – Align outbound campaigns with paid, content, and event channels to maximize conversion.

  • Run experiments fast – Test messaging, cadences, and automation stacks (Clay, Apollo, HubSpot, n8n) to continuously improve output.

  • Lead from the front – Be the most active rep on the floor, showing the team what elite outbound looks like.

  • Coach constantly – Build a culture of speed, accountability, and experimentation.

  • Collaborate cross-functionally – Work closely with the CEO, Head of Growth, and Head of Marketing to align on GTM strategy and execution.

Who You Are

  • Quota crusher – You’ve personally generated millions in pipeline and know how to do it again, faster.

  • Player-coach – You can both execute and lead. You thrive in the trenches and know how to train others to do the same.

  • Systems thinker – You love designing processes, sequences, and data flows that scale.

  • Tech-enabled – You’re fluent in Clay, Apollo, HubSpot, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, and the latest outbound tools.

  • B2B SaaS native – You understand how to sell to founders, GTM leaders, and enterprise buyers.

  • Metrics-driven – You track every input and output across your funnel, and you’re obsessed with conversion rates.

  • Startup-tough – You are excited to work 70-80hrs/week, 6 days in office with the team.

  • AI-accelerated – You use automation and AI tools to multiply your output, not replace effort.

Bonus Points

  • Experience building SDR/BDR teams from scratch at a high-growth B2B SaaS company

  • Experience with full-cycle sales or AE roles (not just lead generation)

  • Deep experience using AI or automation in outbound (Clay, n8n, Zapier, etc.)

  • A track record of mentoring top-performing reps who went on to leadership roles

  • You’ve helped scale a GTM motion from $0 → $10M+ ARR
