About Buildcheck

Buildcheck is an AI-powered platform that helps real estate developers, general contractors, and architects catch design mistakes before they become costly change orders, RFIs, or permit delays. Our system reviews drawing sets for coordination issues and compliance gaps — surfacing problems early, before they hit the field or trigger comments from the city.

We’re already working with top builders across North America and are backed by leading investors from Uncork Capital, Peterson Ventures, Xfund, OpenAI, Zillow and more . As we scale, we’re looking for people who want to build something real — in an industry that desperately needs better tools. See more at

About the Role

We’re hiring a Founding Business Development Representative to help us build our outbound motion from the ground up. This is a cold-call–heavy role . You will spend a meaningful portion of your day on the phone talking to general contractors, developers, and construction executives — many of whom have never heard of BuildCheck and are skeptical of new software.

If you love outbound, enjoy mastering a tough ICP, and take pride in booking meetings where others get shut down, this role is for you.

You’ll work directly with the founders and founding AEs to define our outbound playbook, messaging, and targeting. This is not a “wait for inbound” role — you are creating pipeline.

What You'll Do

  • Make high-volume outbound calls to GCs and real estate developers
  • Run cold-call discovery and book qualified meetings for AEs
  • Own outbound prospecting across phone, email, and LinkedIn (phone first)
  • Learn and clearly articulate BuildCheck’s value to a non-technical audience
  • Handle objections from experienced construction professionals
  • Research accounts and personas to improve call quality and conversion
  • Track activity and outcomes in CRM with discipline and accuracy
  • Work closely with AEs to improve handoffs, qualification, and close rates
  • Help shape outbound scripts, call frameworks, and ICP definitions
  • Be an early cultural bar-setter for future SDR hires

You're a Fit if You:

  • Have 1–2 years of outbound SDR/BDR experience, in B2B SaaS or transactional sales
  • Are comfortable making 50–100+ calls per day
  • Have booked meetings through pure cold outbound
  • Enjoy being told “no” and know how to work past it
  • Can hold a confident, professional conversation with senior buyers
  • Learn fast and take feedback seriously
  • Are competitive, resilient, and internally motivated
  • Want to build mastery in outbound and pipeline generation
  • Are excited by early-stage startups where structure is built, not handed down

Bonus Points if You:

  • Knowledge of or experience in the construction, real estate, or industrial markets
  • Sold a technical or complex product to non-technical buyers
  • Worked at an early-stage, fast-growing startup
  • Strong cold-call metrics (connect rates, meetings booked, show rates)
  • Ambitions to grow into an AE role over time
  • Competitive/varsity sports experience

Why this Role Matters:

Outbound is core to Buildcheck’s growth. The buyers we sell to don’t always come inbound — they’re busy running job sites, projects, and portfolios. This role is about earning attention, creating curiosity, and opening doors .

If you succeed here, you’ll have a direct line to the founders, a deep understanding of a hard, valuable ICP, real influence on how the company sells, a clear path to expanded responsibility as we scale and the opportunity to see how to build a venture-backed start-up from the ground up.
