Help marketers adapt to the future of search.

Cognizo is on a mission to help brands win in the age of AI. As search engines evolve into answer engines, we’re pioneering a new category: AI search optimization. Our platform helps marketers understand and improve how visible their brand is when customers ask questions like “What's the best [product] for [use case]?” to AI tools like ChatGPT.

We’re growing fast, with a strong inbound pipeline and promising traction with top-tier companies. We’re hiring our first SDR to turn that interest into revenue. You’ll work closely with the founding team, talk to senior marketing leaders every day and help shape how our go-to-market engine works.

If you’re hungry, high-energy and excited to be on the frontlines of a massive shift in how brands grow, we want to meet you.

Key responsibilities
  • Own top of the funnel lead to SQL journey
  • Respond to and nurture leads coming through multiple inbound channels
  • Understand the full customer journey
  • Conduct discovery conversations to understand prospect needs, use case fit, and buying timeline
  • Book and hand off qualified demos or introductory calls to Account Executives, ensuring the AE has full context on the prospect before the meeting takes place.
  • Follow up persistently with leads who have shown intent but haven't yet converted, using a mix of email, phone, and LinkedIn across a structured multi-touch sequence.
  • Persistently follow up with high-intent leads using a structured multi-touch sequence (email, phone, LinkedIn) until conversion.
  • Continuously develop product knowledge to speak credibly about the platform during early-stage conversations and handle common objections
