About this SDR - Contractor Netwrok role at Piston Technologies
About PistonPay
PistonPay is a payments company starting by revolutionizing how fleets manage their fuel payments. We're a Series A company backed by some of the best investors in the world, including Pear, Spark, and FPV (the same firms behind Anthropic, Dropbox, DoorDash, and Canva). We're building the financial backbone for the trucks and fleets that move the economy, and we're just getting started.
Role overview
We're hiring a Sales Development Representative to own outbound across the broader Ground contractor network: building pipeline and relationships beyond any single fleet, including referral and network-level introductions across the contractor community. You'll be the first conversation a prospect has with PistonPay, prospecting into accounts, qualifying inbound interest, and booking discovery calls for our Account Executives. This is a builder's role centered on compounding relationships, not just one-off dials.
Key Responsibilities
- Prospect across the Ground contractor network through a disciplined mix of cold calls, cold email, and LinkedIn outreach, sustaining a high-volume, high-quality outbound motion (100+ calls per day).
- Qualify inbound leads against our ideal customer profile and convert qualified conversations into booked discovery calls for Account Executives.
- Build network-level relationships and referral pathways that compound pipeline over time.
- Partner with marketing on campaign development, messaging testing, and ongoing refinement of the network ideal customer profile.
- Maintain accurate, up-to-date records in Salesforce and Outreach, and bring a clear point of view on what messaging and tactics are working.
- Travel occasionally (1 to 3 week sprints) to support in-market pushes and events.

In the first 90 days:

- You have built early referral pathways and network relationships that are starting to compound into pipeline.
- You are a trusted partner to marketing and AEs, actively shaping campaigns and ICP refinement rather than just executing them.
- You have helped document or improve the network outbound playbook.

- A genuine desire to build a long-term career in sales. This is a launchpad role, not a stopgap.
