Sales Development Intern
Veriqa is the quality intelligence layer for regulated industries, starting with pharma. We ingest the fragmented, unstructured quality data manufacturers already generate — batch records, deviations, CAPAs, vendor COAs, handwritten and paper files — into one connected graph, and surface the patterns no human or legacy system can see. Our team comes from AWS, Berkeley, UC San Diego, Miltenyi Biotec, and multi-generational pharma manufacturing. We’re building the system every drug on earth depends on.
The Role
We sell into pharma quality assurance — some of the most skeptical, technical, high-trust buyers in enterprise software. That makes this the opposite of spray-and-pray outreach. Our motion is research-driven and peer-to-peer: we study each account’s quality problems, lead with insight, and earn the conversation.
You’ll own the top of the pipeline — finding the right accounts, researching them deeply, and opening doors with plant heads, QA directors, and pharma executives. You’ll work directly with the CEO on the sales motion, learn to sell a new category, and watch your work turn into booked meetings and pilots.
About the Role
- Internship timing flexible to your availability (winter, spring, summer)
- Based in San Francisco, on-site
- Flexible working hours
- Work directly with the founders on GTM and sales strategy
- Opportunity to convert to full-time for strong performers
What Makes You a Good Fit
- Obsessive researcher — you dig until you understand a company’s real problem
- Sharp, concise writer who can earn a reply from a busy executive
- Comfortable talking to senior, technical buyers and asking good questions
- Organized and self-directed; you run your own pipeline without being managed
- Resilient and relentless — you treat a “no” as information, not a wall
Bonus Points
- Interest in pharma, healthcare, life sciences, or regulated industries
- Experience with outbound, cold outreach, or founder-led sales
- Familiarity with CRM and outreach tooling
- Curiosity about AI and how it changes regulated work
