Sales Development Representative (SDR)

About Salk AI

Salk AI builds AI-native advertising products for businesses that need to move faster than their agency can. Our platform helps brands generate, test and scale ad creative using AI, and our team helps them turn that creative into performance on Meta and beyond.

We are a small, high-ownership team. There is no bureaucracy here, and there is nowhere to hide. If you do good work, everyone sees it.

The Role

You are the first human our future customers talk to.

Your job is to find business owners who are spending real money on ads, start a conversation with them, qualify whether we can actually help, and book a meeting on an Account Executive's calendar. The AE takes it from there and closes.

You are not expected to close deals. You are expected to fill the pipeline with meetings worth having.

This is a pure top-of-funnel role, and we treat it as a craft rather than a numbers grind. The best SDRs here get promoted into AE seats.

Who You'll Be Selling To

Our customers are business owners, founders and marketing leads at companies that:

• Are already running Meta ads, or want to start
• Are looking for AI-powered ad creative and ad solutions
• Sit primarily in the UAE, United States, Europe and Australia
• Range from growing e-commerce and D2C brands to service businesses and agencies

You will be speaking to decision-makers, often the owner directly. That means your English, your tone and your ability to sound credible in the first fifteen seconds matter enormously.

What You'll Do

• Research and build targeted prospect lists across our four core regions
• Run outbound across email, LinkedIn and phone, plus any channel you can prove works
• Write your own outreach. We will give you frameworks and messaging, not a script to read word for word
• Qualify prospects on budget, ad spend, intent and fit before booking
• Book qualified meetings onto AE calendars and hand off cleanly with full context
• Follow up relentlessly. Most meetings come after the third touch, not the first
• Keep the CRM accurate and log every meaningful interaction
• Feed what you hear on the front line back to the product and marketing teams

What We're Looking For

Required

• Minimum 1 year of experience in sales, SDR, BDR or business development
• Fluent English, spoken and written, with the confidence to hold a call with a US or European business owner
• Comfortable working across US, European or Middle East time zones
• Track record of hitting a meeting or pipeline target, and the ability to talk about it specifically
• Self-directed. Remote means nobody is checking whether you started at 9

Nice to have

• Experience selling marketing, advertising, SaaS or agency services
• Working knowledge of Meta Ads, paid social or performance marketing
• Familiarity with outbound tooling such as Apollo, Instantly, Lemlist, HubSpot or similar
• Experience selling into the UAE or GCC market
• Additional languages, particularly Arabic, Spanish, French or German

What We Offer

• Fully remote, permanently. Work from anywhere with reliable internet
• Competitive base plus uncapped commission on booked and qualified meetings
• Direct access to the founders. Your ideas get tested, not filed
• A clear path from SDR to Account Executive for people who perform
• Modern outbound stack, and AI tooling that actually removes busywork
• The chance to sell a product built by a company that lives and breathes advertising
