About Us:

Innovapptive is a category-defining SaaS company building the world’s most advanced AI-powered Connected Worker Platform for the industrial sector. Headquartered in Houston, TX, and backed by Vista Equity Partners, Innovapptive is on a mission to reimagine how industrial work gets done — connecting frontline workers, back-office systems, and assets in real time to drive higher safety, reliability, and productivity.

Our platform is trusted by some of the world’s largest enterprises — including Shell, Hess, Cenovus Energy, W.R.Grace, Westlake Chemicals, UNICEF, Kimberly Clark, Scott Miracle Gro, and Newmont Mining to name a few, and across chemicals, energy, mining, and manufacturing industries. These customers have achieved tangible, hard-dollar results, such as:

• Over $40 million in annual EBITDA savings at a single enterprise.
• 10× frontline productivity improvements through mobile-first and AI-enabled workflows.
• 15–20% maintenance cost reductions and significant uptime gains across plants and sites.

Innovapptive is recognized by leading industry analysts for its differentiated value creation model:

• Named a Leader in the Frost & Sullivan Industrial Connected Worker Radar.
• Featured by Gartner in “Connected Factory Worker” research and the Hype Cycle for Manufacturing Operations Strategy.
• Cited by LNS Research for delivering 3–5× greater value than point solutions through unified OT–IT execution, AI/vision innovation, and field-proven ROI.

Our growth is backed by Tiger Global Management and Vista Equity Partners, one of the world’s premier software investors, known for scaling high-performance SaaS companies. Together, we are building the next-generation AI Powered Connected Worker Platform, combining cutting-edge technologies — SLM’s, Generative AI, Computer Vision, and Intelligent Orchestration — into a unified system that transforms plant operations globally.

Today, with over 300+ employees across the U.S., India, and ANZ, Innovapptive stands at a pivotal inflection point: with an ambition to scale to $100M ARR within the next 3-4 years by industrializing every aspect of our product, engineering, and customer delivery systems.

The Role
This role is not about high-volume, transactional lead lists or feature-based messaging. You will partner closely with GTM leadership, Marketing, AEs, and RevOps to generate qualified enterprise opportunities via hyper-personalized outbound motions targeting Directors, VPs, Site Heads, and Cost Take-Out executives. As an Enterprise Outbound SDR, you will be a strategic pipeline driver for Innovapptive’s Top-Down and Bottom-Up campaigns. Your mission isn’t simply outreach - it’s to engage senior operational leaders with economic proof points that demonstrate clear P&L impact, drive urgency, and accelerate executive-level conversations.

What You Will Do

Strategic Outbound Engagement

• Execute targeted, account-based outbound motions to enterprise prospects (Fortune 500 and large manufacturers), leveraging email, phone, and LinkedIn outreach with value-led narratives.
• Conduct deep research on target accounts: economic drivers, maintenance Opex pressures, backlog risks, margins, labor costs, and strategic initiatives.
• Identify and engage decision makers and key economic stakeholders (Director & above) to surface problems tied to cost, downtime, complexity, and inefficiency.

Economic & Outcome-Led Qualification

• Lead conversations anchored on economic value, demonstrating a clear understanding of cost take-out levers and margin impact.
• Disqualify quickly and confidently when prospects show no urgency, no P&L ownership, or no capacity to act.
• Convert outreach into Sales Qualified Leads (SQLs) with clear economic context and urgency indicators.

Partnership & Pipeline Contribution

• Collaborate with AEs and Sales leadership to refine ICP, value stories, objection frames, competitive differentiators, and executive playbooks.
• Feedback market signals into messaging refinement and play optimization - elevating the quality of enterprise touch points.
• Maintain exceptional CRM hygiene, documenting insights that drive field alignment and forecasting accuracy.

Performance Metrics

• Pipeline creation (qualified discovery calls / executive conversations).
• Meeting handoffs with economic context and urgency indicators documented.
• Speed and quality of engagement vs. volume alone.
• Contribution to forecastable and predictable pipeline.

What We’re Looking For 

Enterprise Motion Experience

• 2+ years in a strategic SDR/Enterprise SDR role selling into large enterprise accounts with long sales cycles and multi-stakeholder engagement.
• Experience navigating complex buying committees and selling into manufacturing/industrial or business-critical environments.

Financial Acumen

• Comfortable speaking the language of P&L, maintenance Opex, contractor spend, margin defense, backlog, and cost take-out outcomes - not product features.
• Ability to translate operational challenges into economic impact discussions.

Executive Presence

• Confidence engaging Director, VP, and senior operational leaders with concise, value-led verbal and written communications.
• Executive-grade email, sequence, and messaging design with clear outcomes rather than generic value statements.

Outcome-Led Messaging & Discipline

• Demonstrated ability to research accounts thoroughly and create hyper-personalized outreach that resonates with economic priorities.
• Judgment to disqualify when urgency or decision ownership is absent.
• Strong sense of ownership, discipline in activity execution, and quality signal detection.

Technical Skills

• CRM proficiency (Salesforce preferred) with excellent data hygiene habits.
• Familiarity with sales engagement platforms (Outreach, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Lusha, Zoominfo).
• Comfortable using ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, among other AI tools.
