About Ace Waves

Customer service is being rebuilt from the ground up with the arrival of the latest AI tech. At Ace Waves, we’re building an AI agents platform that handles real customer conversations end-to-end for leading consumer brands.

Started in stealth, Ace Waves is now a fast-growing startup with strong funding (undisclosed publicly for now) and a growing customer base across Europe.

The Mission

The Go-To-Market (GTM) team is the engine behind our global expansion. Positioned at the intersection of Product, AI Automation, and Sales, we don’t just market a tool - we build repeatable revenue engines and define how Agentic AI transforms enterprise outreach.

The Leadership

You’ll be joining a team led by serial entrepreneurs Antanas Bakšys, Ringaudas Kalinauskas, and Lukas Mikuckis. This is their second major venture together following the successful acquisition of their previous scale-up, SearchNode, in 2022.

The Culture

As an early team member, you will operate in a founder-led GTM culture. You’ll work directly with the leadership team, having a seat at the table where strategic decisions are made. This is a high-autonomy, high-impact role designed for someone who wants to skip the corporate red tape and build a global category winner.

About the role

As one of the first BDR dedicated to UKI, Nordics and Benelux, you'll partner directly with our Regional Manager & Senior Account Executive to build the pipeline from scratch.

You'll shape how Ace Waves enters each market: which accounts we go after, what messaging lands, and which channels work. This is a ground-floor role in a founder-led GTM culture, with real autonomy and a direct line to leadership.

Teams Purpose

How We Engineer

Why we are hiring now

What you’ll do

  • Own top-of-funnel pipeline generation - research, identify, and connect with high-impact prospects that move the needle
  • Craft hyper-personalized outreach that resonates with executive decision-makers and drives meaningful engagement
  • Initiate and nurture relationships with C-level stakeholders, building trust and opening paths to strategic opportunities
  • Leverage AI-driven tools and HubSpot expertise to optimize workflows and maintain a competitive edge
  • Collaborate closely with the rest of the GTM team to refine messaging, scale successful campaigns, and celebrate shared wins

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
