AI-Native SDR, AdAI

About AdAI

AdAI recreates winning reference ads in a brand's own look, with verbatim pricing and product details built in by design. Upload a reference ad, pick a product, and get on-brand creative in minutes. Our tagline: Any winning ad, made yours.

We sell to seed through Series A DTC and consumer health founders spending $15K to $100K a month on Meta without an agency. AdAI was built at Revolution Venture Studios and is led by co-founder Kevin Bartley (CEO).

The role You will be AdAI's first SDR, and you will run outbound like an operator, not a dialer. Agents handle research, list building, enrichment, first drafts, and CRM logging. You handle judgment: who is worth contacting, what angle lands, and how to turn a reply into a booked demo.

You will report to the CEO and work directly alongside him on founder-led sales. The goal is a pipeline engine that one person plus a fleet of agents can run at the output of a small team.

What you'll do

• Build and run the prospecting machine. Use agents to source, enrich, and score DTC and consumer health brands against our ICP, then hand-review the shortlist before anything sends. • Write outbound that sounds human. Use LLMs to research each account (recent ads, offers, funding, hiring) and draft personalized openers. You own the final edit and the voice. • Run multichannel sequences. Manage LinkedIn, email, and call touches across our sequencing tools, and keep deliverability healthy on our sending domains. • Book qualified demos. Work replies fast, qualify on fit and Meta spend, and put meetings on the CEO's calendar. • Automate the busywork. Build and maintain agent workflows for research briefs, reply triage, meeting prep, and CRM hygiene. If you do a task three times, you should be thinking about automating it. • Feed the loop. Report weekly on what messaging, segments, and channels work, and bring objections and market signals back to product.

Who you are

Must have • 1 to 3 years in an SDR, BDR, or outbound-heavy growth role, ideally selling to founders or marketers • Daily, hands-on use of LLMs in your own work, with examples you can show us (prompts, workflows, agents you built) • Comfort building no-code or low-code automations, and the instinct to automate anything repetitive • Strong writing. You can tell when AI copy sounds like AI copy, and you fix it • Skepticism about your own tools: you check what agents produce before it reaches a prospect • Self-directed. You are comfortable at an early-stage company where the playbook is still being written

Nice to have • Familiarity with DTC, consumer health, or paid social (Meta ads, creative testing, CPA and ROAS) • Experience with enrichment and sequencing platforms • Some scripting or API comfort (Python, JavaScript, or TypeScript) • Experience at a seed or Series A startup Compensation, logistics, and how to apply • Compensation: New York and San Francisco: $65,000 to $80,000 base, $95,000 to $115,000 OTE.

Remote: $55,000 to $70,000 base, $80,000 to $100,000 OTE. Plus equity. • Location: New York office, San Francisco office, or Remote • Employment type: Full-Time (50+ hours per week)

To apply, send your resume and a short note. Include one thing you've automated with AI in your sales or marketing work: what it does, what tools you used, and what it saved you. A screen recording or a link is better than a description.
