Business Development Lead

About the role

7AI is building the AI foundation for security operations and needs a Business Development Lead to keep relationships warm after the first conversation. You will generate qualified leads through personalized outreach, re‑engage cold prospects, and work closely with account executives to move opportunities forward.

Key responsibilities

• Activate marketing‑qualified leads through one‑to‑one, personalized outreach.
• Follow up on event leads and re‑engage cold conversations so account executives can focus on active deals.
• Partner strategically with account executives: stay engaged in opportunities, multi‑thread across the buying committee, and identify additional stakeholders.
• Represent 7AI at industry events and build relationships with the security community in person.
• Nurture relationships over time rather than chasing a single transaction.

Required profile

• Proven track record of ownership and delivering results.
• Strong time‑management skills with the ability to focus energy where it matters.
• Comfortable operating without a script; judgment over volume.
• Competitive streak that translates into follow‑through.
• Fluency with AI concepts and a mindset to work smarter, not harder.
