Business Development Representative

Sales / Business Development Representative (SDR / BDR)

Origin is building the next generation of endpoint security for the AI era. Across the enterprise, AI agents are quickly becoming part of everyday workflows. They're driving meaningful productivity gains, but they're also creating a new and largely uncharted risk surface: agents operating on endpoints with powerful permissions, opaque behavior, and limited visibility or control. Origin is developing endpoint capabilities purpose-built for this shift, giving organizations the tools to safely grant AI agents the permissions they need while maintaining control, oversight, and trust.

We're backed by Sequoia Capital, Brightmind Partners, IA Ventures, and others, and built by a deeply technical team of Windows internals researchers, product engineers, and offensive operations specialists.

Origin is seeking a Sales / Business Development Representative (SDR / BDR) who thrives when challenged, combines competitive energy with focus, builds meaningful connections, and is motivated by measurable results. This role takes the first steps in creating a high-quality sales pipeline and generating opportunities that drive Origin's growth.

You'll research, reach out, and engage with prospects across the market, building strong connections and fueling the sales engine. This role rewards focus, persistence, and the ability to turn effort into results.
