From Locker Room to Boardroom

You've trained for years to win. You pushed harder, ran faster, and stayed later. Now, it's time to apply that same fire to a new arena-tech sales.


At Arnata , we're hiring elite former collegiate and pro athletes for a high-performance sales team . Not because you know tech-but because you know what it takes to win. We believe the grit, discipline, and mental toughness you built in sports are the same traits that define top performers in sales.

This is not your typical SDR job. It's a launchpad into tech, business, and leadership.

Why This Role Is Different

Early Role, Massive Impact: You'll work side-by-side with our founding team-not buried in a big org chart. The wins you bring in will shape our company's growth.

Fast Track to Leadership: Top performers move fast. This isn't a dead-end job. SDRs at Arnata grow into AEs, team leads, or strategic roles.

Built Around Athletes: We don't just tolerate competitiveness-we recruit it. Your edge will be respected, coached, and rewarded.

Equity in What You're Building: You're not just working here. You're owning a piece of it.

What You'll Do
  • Own the top of the funnel: identify and engage high-potential companies.
  • Execute targeted outbound campaigns and qualify inbound leads.
  • Book meetings, start conversations, and open deals.
  • Train with elite sellers and get 1:1 coaching to become a world-class AE.
  • Collaborate with founders and sales leadership to help shape the playbook from scratch.

You Might Be a Fit If You
  • Played varsity or professional sports and crave a new challenge after graduation.
  • Are hungry, coachable, and obsessed with self-improvement.
  • Want to build a real career in tech-but don't want to sit on the sidelines.
  • Have a team-first mentality but a winner's mindset.
  • Want to join a rocketship startup early-and rise fast.

Compensation & Perks
  • Salary: Competitive salary (base + bonus)
  • Equity: You'll own part of what you're building.
  • Benefits: Health, dental, vision
  • Training: Intensive onboarding, ongoing mentorship, and elite coaching
