BDR/SDR - Brave Search API
SF hybrid or Remote - USA preferred
About Brave
Brave is on a mission to protect the human right to privacy online. We've built a free web browser that blocks creepy ads and trackers by default, a private search engine with a truly independent index, a private ad network (opt-in!) that directly rewards you for your attention, and a browser-native AI integration focused on keeping private data private.
The internet is a sea of ads, hackers, and echo chambers. Big Tech makes huge profits off our data, and tells us what's true and what's not. Brave is fighting back. Join us!
The Role
We are looking for a driven BDR/SDR to help us expand our footprint in the developer and enterprise markets and create our internal lead generation process.
As a BDR for the Brave Search API, you will be the first point of contact for potential enterprise and developer users. Your primary goal is to identify, qualify, and schedule meetings for our Account Executives, focusing on organizations looking to integrate privacy-centric search capabilities into their products.
Key Responsibilities

- Outreach: Execute multi-channel outreach campaigns (email, LinkedIn, cold calling) to engage CTOs, Product Managers, and Lead Developers.
- Qualification: Conduct discovery calls to understand technical requirements, pain points regarding current search providers, and budget authority.
- Pipeline Management: Maintain accurate records of all activities and leads in our CRM (e.g., Salesforce/HubSpot).
- Collaboration: Work closely with the Marketing and Product teams to refine messaging and stay updated on new API features and use cases.
- Market Intelligence: Gather feedback from prospects to help shape the product roadmap and sales strategy.
Qualifications
- Experience: 1-3 years of experience in BDR/SDR roles, preferably in B2B SaaS, API/Developer Tools, or Privacy Tech.
- Communication: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills; ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
- Tech Savviness: Familiarity with APIs, developer ecosystems, or the ability to quickly learn technical product details.
- Mindset: A strong belief in the mission of online privacy and user data sovereignty.
- Tools: Proficiency with CRM software, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, and outreach automation tools.
Compensation - $65K-70K base salary plus commission and benefits
Why Join Brave?
- Industry-leader in privacy, with a research and engineering team that's innovating everyday to keep people safer online and beat Big Tech
- Highly competitive salaries & benefits, and generous home-office stipends
- Fully remote team (no office, no commute)
- Minimal meetings
- Welcoming, humble, ridiculously smart teammates, and a truly flat org structure
- Opportunity to get in early at a hyper-growth company, and revolutionize the web

Build a standout application
For the BDR/SDR - Brave Search API at Brave, reviewers look for concise evidence over buzzwords. Mirror the language of the posting sparingly, quantify support or delivery outcomes, and show how you handled ambiguity, time-zone collaboration and user empathy. Keep your resume to impact, keep your cover note to one page, and link to artifacts — tickets resolved, docs shipped, dashboards owned — that prove you can operate in a fast-moving Web3 team. Prepare to discuss a time you turned a confusing user report into a clear fix and how you measure quality in support and operations.
Web3 hiring values reliability: on-time follow-through, clear writing, and a track record of improving runbooks and tooling. Treat the application as a work sample. For interviews, be ready to walk through how you prioritize across time zones, handle a difficult user, and decide when to escalate versus resolve directly. Show how you document decisions so the next teammate benefits.
In a distributed Web3 org, trust builds through written clarity. Use the cover note to demonstrate it. Add links to public work, keep formatting scannable, and close with a clear ask. Hiring managers skim — make impact obvious in the first half-page.
Career growth in Web3 rewards continuous learning. Follow protocol changelogs, practice with testnets, and contribute to open issues. Small, consistent contributions compound into credibility more than one-off credentials.
