- Comfort with technology and data — you won't be intimidated by CRMs, sales intelligence tools, or AI workflows. You'll master them fast.
- A builder's mindset — the best BDEs experiment, measure, and iterate on their outreach the same way you'd debug and optimize a system.
- AI fluency — you already learn new tools quickly. At Zycus, AI is how we work, and engineers pick it up naturally.
