CivilGrid is the trusted civil design platform powering affordable infrastructure renewal and growth. We give utilities, civil engineers, and municipalities a single, collaborative source of truth for what's underground so teams can plan, design, and build faster, smarter, and safer.

Our platform consolidates utility records, geotechnical and environmental data, paving moratoriums, and jurisdictional requirements directly from 3,000+ utilities, agencies, and municipalities with full chain-of-custody documentation. Teams at PG&E, Mark Thomas, and dozens of leading engineering firms use CivilGrid to cut research time by up to 88%, reduce project costs, prevent dig-ins, and accelerate delivery on the projects that keep communities running.

We're a venture-backed Series A startup tackling a $4.7T US infrastructure market that has been underserved by software for decades. Founded by industry insiders, each with 10+ years in utilities and civil engineering, we move fast, ship work that matters, and stay close to the customers and field teams we build for.

We’re seeking a highly motivated and outcomes-driven BDR (reporting to the Lead BDR) to join our team. As one of the first BDRs at CivilGrid, you’ll be at the front line of our sales motion—engaging prospects, opening doors, and setting up qualified conversations for our Account Executives. You’ll be learning directly from the founding team and have the opportunity to shape the sales playbook, messaging, and outreach strategy in a critical growth phase.

  Occasional travel to conferences

• 2-4 years of SDR/BDR or other relevant outbound sales experience (construction-tech, GIS, SaaS, or related industries a plus)

• Strong written and verbal communication skills—you’re clear, persuasive, and know how to tailor your message to different stakeholders

• Grit and resilience—you’re comfortable with high-volume outreach and not afraid of rejection

• Curiosity and coachability—you’re eager to learn, try new approaches, and get better every day

• Organized and self-motivated—you can manage your pipeline and hit activity targets without constant oversight

• Excited by startups and the chance to build something new.

We're a small, but rapidly growing team that ships. Expect direct feedback, real ownership from day one, and proximity to customers — huge utilities, public agencies, and engineering firms whose work depends on what we build. We default to in-person collaboration where it matters and remote-friendly flexibility otherwise. We hire people who care deeply about their craft and the communities our customers serve.
