Automating Compliance for Construction. Backed by Y Combinator.

About the role

We’re hiring an energetic Business Development Representative to own outbound pipeline generation from the ground up. You’ll partner directly with the Head of Sales and the founders to design, test, and scale prospecting programs that bring new revenue into Dili.

Prospect & qualify – Source ICP accounts, build high-quality lead lists, and book qualified discovery calls.

  • Consistent record of hitting or exceeding meeting-booking targets
  • Fluent in cold calling & cold email best practices, comfortable writing your own sequences
  • Analytical mindset—loves dashboards and knows how to reverse-engineer pipeline goals
  • Entrepreneurial bias to action, excited to build systems rather than inherit them
  • Clear, confident communicator who can distill complex tech into punchy value props
