Run founder-led outreach: identify prospects and partners, warm contacts, book meetings, monitor social media for opportunities, manage CRM pipeline, and prepare the founder for meetings.
About the company:
Lemon.io is an autopilot for recruiting.
We've replaced the slow, expensive recruiting agency with a platform that delivers vetted, responsive candidates, ready for a final interview. In days, not weeks.
Hundreds of fast-growing companies (like Retool, Function Health, and Pinterest) use Lemon to build their engineering teams, from early-stage startups to enterprises.
We're remote-first, profitable, and growing at a moment when the legacy recruiting industry is being rewritten in real time.
About the role:
You'll run the founder's outreach.
Founder-led sales and partnership building are among our highest-leverage ways to grow. You'll help define who's worth reaching, and build a steady pipeline of meetings with them: prospects, potential partners, and people worth knowing.
Responsibilities:
- Find the right people to reach, inside and outside the founder's network: prospects, partners, and people worth knowing.
- Reach out on the founder’s behalf, warm up contacts, and book meetings.
- Monitor social media to spot people worth engaging.
- Manage the pipeline in the CRM, and help prep the founder for each meeting.
What we're looking for:
- 2+ years of SDR, BDR, or outbound sales experience (ideally in tech), with a proven track record of building pipelines from zero.
- Exceptional communication skills (9/10 in written English, 7/10 in spoken English): clear, concise, persuasive, and relationship-savvy, with a focus on high-personalization outreach (no spray-and-pray).
- Proactive, ambitious mindset with a strong desire to scale impact by building and leading a team once processes are proven.
- High emotional intelligence, process-minded approach, and comfort building from scratch in a fast-paced startup.
- A strong feel for the tech and startup world: you follow the founders, investors, and topics that matter, and can spot who's worth knowing.
- Able to work US Eastern business hours.
Why Lemon.io:
- Profitable and bootstrapped. No fundraising pressure, real business fundamentals
- A pivotal moment: we're building the product, not maintaining it
- Small team, high ownership. Your work is visible and your decisions ship
- eNPS of 63. People here care and stay
- Direct access to founders and leadership - no layers.
What We Offer:
- Competitive salary in USD
- Full remote with flexible working hours
- 28 working days of vacation per year
- 7 days of sick leave
- Annual reimbursements: health, self-development, travel, home office, mental wellness
- Startup culture with open communication.
