[Remote] Enterprise Business Development Representative - Central

Remote role Full-time Open position

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Chainguard is a trusted source for open source software, focusing on delivering secure and production-ready builds. The company is seeking an Enterprise Business Development Representative who will engage with engineers and security leaders to drive enterprise account strategy and build a robust sales pipeline through thoughtful outreach and meaningful conversations.

Responsibilities

  • Drive enterprise account strategy - Work alongside AEs to map target accounts and identify the right entry points across security, platform, and engineering teams
  • Run thoughtful, technical outbound - Craft highly personalized outreach that resonates with developers, DevOps, and security leaders — no generic sequences
  • Understand how modern infrastructure works - Research how companies build and ship software (containers, CI/CD, cloud environments) to make your outreach relevant and credible
  • Lead meaningful early conversations - Qualify opportunities by understanding technical context, risk posture, and business priorities
  • Build real pipeline, not just meetings - Focus on creating opportunities that move forward — quality over quantity
  • Act as an extension of the AE - Collaborate on account plans, messaging, and deal progression
  • Use tools intelligently - Leverage Salesforce, Outreach/Salesloft, and data tools to execute efficiently — but never at the expense of quality
  • Continuously improve the motion - Test messaging, share insights, and help refine how we engage the market
  • Be a feedback loop to the business - Bring insights from conversations back to marketing and product — especially what resonates (or doesn’t) with technical buyers

Skills

  • 1–3+ years as a BDR/SDR, ideally working with mid-market or enterprise accounts
  • Proven ability to generate pipeline through outbound (not just inbound qualification)
  • Experience engaging multiple stakeholders within technical or complex organizations
  • Strong writing skills — especially in crafting personalized, relevant outreach
  • Curious and motivated to learn how modern software and security actually work
  • Comfortable navigating ambiguity and building your own approach
  • Experience with Salesforce, Outreach/Salesloft, or similar tools
  • Track record of hitting or exceeding pipeline targets

Benefits

  • Flexible & Remote-First Culture: Work remotely with team meetup opportunities, bi-annual destination summits, and a monthly stipend for coworking spaces, phone and internet costs.
  • Our Approach to Equity: Receive stock options upon hire and promotion. Plus, you can participate in secondary offerings and have 10 years to exercise your options (yes, you read that correctly: 10 years!).
  • 100% Covered Health Insurance: We cover 100% of your health, vision and dental insurance premiums for you and your dependents. Nothing comes out of your paycheck.
  • ∞ Flexible Time Off: Take the time you need – to do our best work, we need to recharge and reset.
  • 18 Weeks Paid Parental Leave: We offer 18 weeks for birthing parents and 12 weeks for non-birthing parents, with the option to use it all at once or throughout your child's first year.
