Manager, Business Development

About Blitzy Blitzy is an AI software development platform on a mission to revolutionize the software development life cycle by autonomously building custom software to unlock the next industrial revolution. We're transforming how enterprises build software, turning enterprise requirements into production-ready code with an agentic software development platform that can autonomously execute 80% of the quantum of software development work. We’re backed by tier 1 investors and built by repeat founders with a track record of scaling successful companies.

We are building Blitzy's Business Development function from the ground up, and this is the first people-leadership hire in it. As BDR Manager you will own the founding cohort of technically-fluent BDRs, recruit, onboard, certify, and coach them to the Blitzy standard and build the coaching layer of a world-class pipeline organization designed first contact to close. You report to the VP of Business Development and partner closely with Account Executives, Enablement, RevOps / Sales Productivity, and Recruiting. This is a builder's role and a player-coach role: the playbook, the standard, and the tooling exist in first-draft form, your job is to install them with real reps, hold the bar, and make the motion repeatable. Success is a high-quality pipeline that converts, produced by a team that ramps fast and stays.

Hire, train, and develop the founding BDR cohort; maintain coverage across the territory as the team scales. Own onboarding and enablement with Enablement — run the 30-60-90 ramp curriculum and the certification and taped role-play gates; refine the hiring profile with Recruiting. Coach daily and run weekly 1:1s: scorecard review, one skill focus (calls, objections, messaging), and a pipeline walk; document and email coaching notes on every opportunity. Own the metrics funnel and inspect it on a routine — activity, connect rate, meetings booked → accepted (NBM), NBM → conversion, pipeline generated, and attainment. Run the accepted-NBM / quota-relief workflow against the objective rubric, and audit approvals for consistency. Protect the handoff: spot-check transitions, triage drop-off, and partner with the AEs to kill bad pipeline, elevate good, and rescue what's sliding. Ensure inbound leads are actioned within SLA; keep CRM and team data accurate. Create spiffs for special motions; run QBRs; track attainment QoQ and YoY; help leadership evaluate tools, forecast, and set best practices. Assist in career pathing into AE and other GTM roles (BDR → Senior BDR → AE, ~16–18 months)   What We're Looking For Experience managing or coaching SDR/BDR reps or a top-performing rep ready to lead, with a track record of developing early-career sellers. The ability to teach a rigorous discovery motion: MEDDPICC and the pain funnel, and to certify reps on tape. Comfort in a technical, enterprise, high-ACV motion, you can coach reps to speak credibly with engineering leaders and CTOs. Data-driven coaching instincts (Gong, HubSpot); you inspect behavior, not just activity. A builder's mindset — you will help create a process, hold a high standard, and iterate; low ego, high curiosity, championship mentality. Preferred: prior SDR/BDR leadership at an enterprise SaaS or technical platform; familiarity with modern software-development concepts.   Why This Role This role builds Blitzy's future GTM leaders. As the function scales, the BDR Manager has a clear path to second-line leadership (Senior / Director, Business Development) and into the broader GTM organization. The BDR org is a talent engine — the leaders who build it will grow with it.
