Job Description
About the Job:
LaunchDarkly is looking for an experienced, self-directed Sales Development Representative to own the first stage of engagement across APAC. You will manage and qualify inbound leads, event MQLs, and accounts showing meaningful engagement through our account-based programs.
This is not a purely reactive lead-response role. You will combine fast, consultative follow-up with thoughtful, proactive outreach to turn customer interest and buying signals into qualified meetings and pipeline.
Responsibilities:
- Act as the first point of contact for prospective customers across the region, creating a fast, thoughtful, and credible first impression.
- Respond rapidly to high-intent inbound inquiries, including demo requests, pricing requests, trials, contact forms, and other hand-raisers.
- Own follow-up for event leads, adapting outreach based on the person, account, and engagement history.
- Research and proactively engage targeted accounts that show meaningful engagement and buying intent.
- Convert qualified interest into sales-ready meetings and opportunities for Account Executives.
- Execute coordinated outreach across phone, email, LinkedIn, and other approved channels.
- Maintain complete, accurate, and timely activity, qualification notes, and account context in Salesforce.
- Partner closely with Account Executives, Marketing, Revenue Operations, and the global SDR organization to improve lead quality, routing, messaging, and conversion.
- Share patterns and feedback from prospects so the broader team can improve campaigns, events, content, and the customer journey.
Qualifications:
- At least 1 year of successful SDR or BDR experience in B2B SaaS or a similar environment.
- A demonstrated record of setting goals, taking ownership, and delivering measurable results.
- Experience communicating with customers, prospects, or other external audiences.
- Strong judgment and the ability to operate independently.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English, with the confidence to engage senior and technical stakeholders.
