Business Development Representative (Hiring Immediately)
Edwin
Job Description
Edwin is building the modern financial operating system for local governments. Cities, counties, and special districts manage trillions of dollars using fragmented bank portals, legacy systems, and manual spreadsheets. We are replacing that infrastructure with an AI-powered platform that integrates banking, investing, spend management, and automated workflows into a single source of truth. Backed by top-tier institutional VCs, we are live with initial clients across the country. Local governments are underserved by every major financial platform. We are building the infrastructure they have never had. The Role We are hiring our first Business Development Representative to help grow Edwin’s footprint across local government. This is a chance to join an early-stage, mission-driven startup at the top of the funnel and shape how cities, counties, and special districts discover a financial platform built for them. As Edwin’s first dedicated BDR, you will be on the front lines of our go-to-market motion: identifying prospects, running thoughtful outreach, and setting up conversations with finance directors, treasurers, and city leaders. You will work directly with our GTM Lead and founders, learning how to run a world-class sales process and how to use AI as a force-multiplier in your daily work. We will help you use AI for prospecting, research, and automation so you grow both as a seller and as a modern operator. What You’ll Do Own top of funnel. Build and work targeted prospect lists of cities, counties, and special districts, and turn them into qualified conversations for the team.
Run thoughtful outreach. Write and send personalized email, calls, and LinkedIn sequences that speak to the real problems municipal finance teams face.
Book qualified meetings. Set up and confirm discovery calls with finance directors, treasurers, and decision makers, and hand them off cleanly to the GTM Lead.
Use AI as a multiplier. Lean on AI tools for research, account mapping, list building, and message drafting so you cover more ground than a traditional rep.
Keep the pipeline clean. Track every touch and outcome in the CRM, and report on what is working so we can sharpen the motion together.
Learn the gov-fintech buyer. Develop a real understanding of how local governments evaluate and buy software, and feed that insight back to the team.

Even Better If You Have… Sold into government, the public sector, or other complex, multi-stakeholder buyers.
