Business Development Lead
ABOUT HUD
HUD mission is to build reliable, fair and open infrastructure for AI data. We want data to be valuable for the people who create it and trustworthy for the labs that train on it. Our team is a quickly growing group of researchers, engineers and operators building the economy that shapes what AI will become. Backed by $16M from top VCs and YC (W25), our marketplace and platform are used by startups, Fortune 500 companies and frontier labs.
ABOUT THE ROLE
HUD's product sells itself to the right person. Your challenge is finding and selling to them at scale.
The buyers of HUD’s data are ML engineers, AI researchers, and engineering leaders at frontier labs and enterprises. They respond not to traditional SaaS outreach, but to someone who understands what they're building, why their current eval pipeline is broken, and how HUD fixes it.
That’s why we’re looking for a Business Development Lead who can both carry technical conversations and close - and do so at scale. We’re looking for systems builders, not just salespeople.
RESPONSIBILITIES

- Build and maintain GTM workflows (e.g., outbound email sequencing, CRM automation, lead scoring, custom tooling, inbound lead qualification)
- Use AI tools aggressively to 10x your output (e.g., vibe code scrapers, automate workflows, build internal tools)
- Develop and iterate on messaging that resonates with technical buyers, including ML engineers, AI researchers, and engineering leaders
- Quickly learn new prospect businesses / industries and understand their pain points, workflows, and why HUD matters to them
- Track pipeline metrics and optimize conversion at every stage
- Work closely with founders to develop and refine our GTM playbook as we scale
