Candidates who are within reasonable commuting distance will be considered.

WHAT YOU BRING TO THE ROLE: - Open to all experience levels, including new grads - any background in sales, business development, or outbound outreach (internships included) is a plus. - Strong written and verbal communication skills, with a knack for crafting outreach that actually gets responses. - Resilient and self-motivated - you don't get rattled by rejection and stay focused on the goal. - Able to break down technical concepts and connect them to what a prospect actually cares about. - Ready to thrive in a fast-paced, in-person environment. BONUS POINTS IF YOU HAVE: - Hands-on experience with CRM tools like Salesforce or HubSpot, sales automation platforms, or LinkedIn Sales Navigator. - Exposure to the data engineering or analytics space - bonus if you've heard of Apache Airflow. - Experience selling to technical personas like data engineers, analytics leads, or CTOs. - Second European language #LI-OnSite #LI-Hybrid At Astronomer, we value diversity.
