Director of Global Business Development

About Antithesis

We’re on a mission to redefine how modern distributed systems are tested and released. Our platform is trusted by engineering teams who demand rock-solid reliability, scalable performance, and deep technical visibility. Our platform doesn’t just assure system correctness and reliability, it exists because developers need something better. If you’ve ever experienced the pain of a production outage, had a bad week on-call, or had a release delayed by weeks because of one killer bug – you’ll understand exactly why we’re doing what we do.

If you're passionate about developer-first products, system resilience, and correctness, we’d love to talk.

We are scaling rapidly, and we’re looking for a strategic, hands‑on Global Business Development leader who can build, elevate, and scale our BDR organization.

As the Director of Global Business Development
, you will build and lead Antithesis’s BDR function, owning the strategy, execution, performance, and growth of our outbound pipeline engine. You will develop a team that can engage deeply technical stakeholders—CTOs, distributed systems engineers, SREs, and founders—with clarity, curiosity, and credibility.

This is not a traditional high‑volume business development environment. Our buyers are expert engineers, and our outreach must demonstrate technical fluency, sophistication, and a deep understanding of distributed systems pain points. You will shape outbound strategy, partner with Sales and Marketing leadership, define goals and operational rigor, and hire and mentor a high‑performing team capable of generating meaningful, qualified opportunities in a highly technical domain.

If you are a builder who thrives in early‑stage environments, loves developing people, and has a passion for developer‑first products, this role will give you the opportunity to make a defining impact.
