Build and execute sequenced outreach across email, phone, and LinkedIn, conduct preliminary discovery, and warm‑transfer qualified opportunities to the appropriate closing AE.
Pipeline Hygiene & Cross‑Functional Coordination: Maintain Salesforce data integrity across accounts, contacts, opportunities, and activities.

Work closely with Marketing on lead routing, campaign feedback, and ICP refinement, and provide feedback to RevOps on inbound lead quality and outbound sequence performance.
