Business Development Representative

About Zenskar
Zenskar is an AI-native revenue automation platform built to handle real-world complexity.

It sits between your CRM and ERP automating everything in between: billing, revenue recognition, collections, usage metering, and analytics. Across any pricing model, any entity structure, any currency.

Our vision: Zero-Touch Finance. Agents execute. Humans supervise. Finance teams set the rules. Zenskar runs them.

Founded by Apurv Bansal and Saurabh Agarwal, second-time founders whose previous startups were acquired by Snapdeal and Gaana. The team brings experience from Google, Deutsche Bank, Elevation Capital, IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, and Harvard Business School.

We have 5x'd revenue in the past year. We are default alive.

Funding
We raised $15M in Series A funding in April 2026, led by Susquehanna Venture Capital, Bessemer Venture Partners, Shine Capital, and Rho, with participation from Rocketship, J-Ventures, Future Back Ventures by Bain & Company, and Converge.

The funding is being used to expand our Agents Marketplace and scale operations, not headcount.

The Problem We're Solving
Finance teams aren't struggling because they lack AI tools. They're struggling because the systems underneath those tools were built for a simpler world. These systems label real-world complexity as edge cases and force teams into costly, error-prone workarounds: revenue leakage, delayed collections, audit risk, and finance teams buried in grunt work.

Bolting AI onto these broken foundations is as good as a Ferrari engine on a horse-drawn carriage. Zenskar is purpose-built from the ground up: the architecture handles complexity natively, so AI actually works.

It combines foundational flexibility + deterministic calculation + purpose-built AI agents to deliver end-to-end automation across the order-to-cash cycle - without workarounds, without engineering tickets.

The B2B billing and revenue automation market is $2B today, projected to reach $10B by 2030.

About this role
What have we achieved so far with the outbound lead generation motion

Zenskar has found strong product–market fit and built a repeatable sales motion, led by:
A 20-member demand engine (BDRs, Marketers, RevOps)
5 Account Executives
A 7-member pre-sales and post-sales team

We set up our outbound lead generation motion in May ’24 with a founding cohort of BDRs working directly with the Co-Founder. Over the past year, we’ve completed the 0-to-1 journey through two sales cycles, converting high-ACV paying customers sourced by the outbound BDR team.

Our current team of ten BDRs (one now promoted to BD Team Lead and one promoted to Account Executive) is an integral part of the company and has played a pivotal role in this journey - demonstrating the ability to self-manage and iterate on outreach strategies. They built our current tech stack, messaging, and processes from scratch.

In the first six months, most of our lead generation came through email and LinkedIn. We began cold calling in December ’24, and it already contributes to 50%+ of our outbound lead generation. We expect cold calling to account for over 70% of leads at a steady state.

We are a growing team with a 7+ team members in business development. We are looking for folks who are excited to get their hands dirty in a 0 to 1 journey. If you are expecting a fully working playbook that you can execute upon, Zenskar is probably not the right fit for you at this point
