About Oodle.ai

Oodle’s mission is to build an iconic observability company! Oodle.ai is an AI-native observability platform for logs, metrics, and traces—debugged in plain English. Under the hood, it’s powered by a modern serverless, S3-native architecture that’s radically simpler and 3–5× cheaper than legacy observability stacks. It's a drop-in replacement for Grafana, Elastic, and Datadog with 1-click migration. Customers include unicorns, and public companies: Lookout, Zaggle, CureFit, and Fuel Labs.

The founders are serial entrepreneurs (ex-Rubrik, AWS, YC, and IIT Alumni) who have built world class teams over the last decade. They lived through observability pain points for 8+ years - both as a buyer at a high scale company for 4.5 years (Rubrik) and as a company builder selling to the same buyer (4+ years at YC Startup ). Our team has built and launched world-class products like Rubrik Security Cloud , AWS S3, DynamoDB, and Snowhouse at Snowflake. The team has not only co-founded startups but also understands how to scale them. We are backed by Engineering Capital, Pear VC, and SNR VC ( 2025's best early stage investor ).

We’re winning customers who are tired of:

Datadog cost blowups

Elastic/OpenSearch operational overhead

Grafana/Loki scaling ceilings

Slow incident resolution

The Role

We’re hiring a Founding SDR to build our outbound engine from scratch.

This is for someone who has done early-stage startup selling before (ideally infra/devtools), sells well to technical buyers, and brings real hunger + high energy .

Prospect into SRE, DevOps, Platform, Infra, VP Eng

Run high-volume outbound across email, LinkedIn, and calls

Book qualified meetings and generate real pipeline

Learn the product deeply and improve messaging weekly

Build sequences, talk tracks, and a repeatable SDR playbook

Partner directly with the CEO + founding team

Who this role IS for

This role is for someone who is entrepreneurial and wants to help build a foundational company — the kind of platform that becomes an industry default.
