Work
Operated Inside a Company
AI GTM Systems Operations
Operating AI tooling other people's work depends on, inside a live revenue function.
Context
- RoleSales Development Representative, Mapped Inc.; owns and operates the AI GTM tool stack
- Contextfirst and only SDR, three-person go-to-market team
- Period2025 – present
As the first and only sales development hire on a three-person go-to-market team, I own and operate the company's AI GTM tool stack: a vendor AI SDR platform, an enrichment platform, and the AI and workflow layer inside the CRM. I built the lead lifecycle process the tooling runs against, and I've carried pipeline the entire time.
The pipeline figure I cite is stage-scoped — meeting to opportunity — and it is my own: 27 meetings generated, 17 accepted by the AE as opportunities — 63%.
Operated surface
- Vendor AI SDR platform.A commercial AI SDR platform — operated, not built.
- Enrichment platform.Account and contact data feeding every downstream step.
- CRM AI and workflow layer.Lifecycle automation and the marketing-to-sales handoff.
Approach
- Lifecycle before tooling.Designed and built the lead lifecycle process in the CRM, including the qualification criteria governing the marketing-to-sales handoff — so the automation had a definition to enforce rather than invent.
- First hire, no playbook.Built the outbound motion with no prior playbook, on a function that didn't exist before this role.
- Ownership, stated precisely."Own and operate" — not "formally assigned." AI behavior, workflow direction, and implementation decisions inside approved boundaries; engineering standards, code review, and deployment sit elsewhere.
Where the line sits
- I own.AI behavior, workflow direction, the tooling roadmap, and implementation decisions inside approved boundaries.
- I did not build.The vendor AI SDR platform — a commercial product, operated only.
- Out of scope.Product ownership. GTM and product were organizationally separate; no product work was performed.
- Not claimed.Team leadership or people management — none exists.
