Full job description
SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today, SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary and expanding consciousness to the stars.
SpaceXSI is building Super Intelligence to help humanity understand the universe. Our teams are building the full Super Intelligence stack: from our Colossus supercomputers, to Grok models, to our suite of applications, including Grok Bot, Grok Build, Grok Imagine, Grok Voice, and X. We're creating a powerful flywheel where more compute trains better models, better models power more useful products, and what we learn from people using those products shapes what we build next.
About the role
As a Sales Development Representative at SpaceXAI, you'll be the tip of the spear for pipeline generation, the first voice a prospective customer hears, and the person who earns their attention before an Account Executive ever gets on a call. You'll work across the full range of our commercial segments, from fast-moving startups to mid-market engineering organizations, identifying the right buyers and creating the conditions for meaningful sales conversations.
This isn't a role for someone who waits for leads to come in. You'll build pipeline from scratch, learn how great engineering teams think, and develop a deep understanding of how Cursor transforms developer productivity. It's the fastest way to learn enterprise sales at one of the most exciting companies in AI.
What you'll do
Generate qualified pipeline for our Account Executive team through high-volume outbound prospecting, including cold calls, personalized emails, LinkedIn, and creative multi-channel sequences
Research target accounts and map stakeholders across Engineering, Product, and Leadership to identify the right entry points
Conduct discovery conversations that go beyond surface-level qualification, understand how development teams work, what's slowing them down, and where Cursor fits
Partner closely with AEs to develop account strategies, hand off opportunities cleanly, and stay looped in as deals progress
Hit and exceed weekly activity targets and monthly qualified meeting goals
Represent SpaceXAI's brand and product with conviction; you'll be many prospects' first impression of the company
Bring market intelligence back to the team: what resonates, what objections are coming up, what messaging is landing
Help build the playbook. As an early SDR, your patterns and learnings will shape how this function scales
You may be a fit if
You have 1–2 years of experience in a sales, customer-facing, or business development role. SDR/BDR experience at a SaaS or developer tools company is a strong plus
