About Co Lab

At CoLab, we want to help mechanical engineering teams bring life-changing products to market years sooner.

CoLab is a cloud based platform for engineering design review. We make it easy for subject matter experts (SMEs) across your business to access, evaluate, and comment on 2D drawings and 3D models. Our built-in AI peer checker, Auto Review, scans designs for common errors or non-compliance with your standards and guidelines. Auto Review creates markups and comments on your files, in context - just like a human checker.

With CoLab, human SMEs and AI work together to help you make better decisions and improve designs faster. We automatically capture knowledge from across your global business that would otherwise be buried in emails, spreadsheets, slide decks, and unknown locations in Sharepoint or PLM. Then, we make sure every lesson learned and every design guideline is applied exactly when it matters.

Companies like Johnson Controls, Komatsu, Schaeffler, and Polaris have launched products 40% faster, cut BOM costs by 50%, and reduced quality escapes by 15% in 1 year.

About the role

CoLab is growing quickly, and we're looking for a motivated Business Development Representative (BDR) to join our business development team. The ideal candidate is a go-getter with a knack for making conversations happen. You learn from every interaction you have. Our SDRs often transition into Account Executives, and we're looking for people who are driven and eager to pursue that career path.

You'll spend your days conducting research to connect with the right engineering leaders, engage in compelling conversations, and deliver qualified pipeline in the form of Sales Qualified leads (SQLs) and Sales Accepted Opportunities (SAOs) to our team of Account Executives. You are able to work independently but love to collaborate with teammates to fine tune best approaches. You are comfortable with - and eager to learn about - technical subject matter.

For this role, you'll need to be comfortable with cold calls and ready to speak with people at all levels of an organization.

What you'll do:

Generate qualified pipeline and drive growth by identifying, engaging, and qualifying prospective customers through a combination of cold calls, emails, and social outreach

Responsible for monthly and quarterly SQL and SAO targets

Conduct in-depth account research to identify key decision-makers and understand organizational priorities, opportunities, and buying signals

Partner closely with Account Executives to set up high-quality meetings and ensure smooth handoffs for deeper discovery and deal progression

Maintain accurate records of your outreach and lead interactions in Salesforce and outreach, leveraging data and tools to optimize your approach and stay organized

Continuously improve by seeking out feedback, participating in regular coaching sessions, and developing both your sales and technical acumen

What you'll need:

Confidence and executive presence when engaging stakeholders at all levels, including senior leadership and C-suite

Conviction for sales, with a drive to build pipeline and growth for the company - an entrepreneurial mindset and passion for outbound prospecting

Creative problem-solving and adaptability, with a bias for action and the belief that challenges are just opportunities in disguise

Interest and ability to understand technical products and customer use cases, and communicate their value in a clear, relevant way

Team-first attitude with ownership - you care about your own results and the team's success equally

Strong internal motivation to hit goals, improve every day, and make a measurable impact

Exceptional communication skills, both written and verbal, with a focus on clarity, empathy, and persuasion

Why CoLab?

This is a full-time, permanent position with an attractive compensation package that includes commission and stock options.
