Description
Apollo.io is the leading go-to-market solution for revenue teams, trusted by over 500,000 companies and millions of users globally, from rapidly growing startups to some of the world's largest enterprises. Founded in 2015, the company is one of the fastest growing companies in SaaS, raising approximately $250 million to date and valued at $1.6 billion. Apollo.io provides sales and marketing teams with easy access to verified contact data for over 210 million B2B contacts and 35 million companies worldwide, along with tools to engage and convert these contacts in one unified platform. By helping revenue professionals find the most accurate contact information and automating the outreach process, Apollo.io turns prospects into customers. Apollo raised a series D in 2023 and is backed by top-tier investors, including Sequoia Capital, Bain Capital Ventures, and more, and counts the former President and COO of Hubspot, JD Sherman, among its board members. The cost of going from idea to working prototype has collapsed. One person with taste, strong judgment, and AI tools can now do what used to take a team and a sprint cycle. Apollo is hiring for what comes next: Product Builders who combine product judgment, domain depth, and AI-native execution.
This role owns Deliverability & Connectivity , the trust layer that determines whether Apollo can reliably send, sync, route, suppress, enrich, and activate across a customer’s GTM stack.
Apollo is expanding from “help me find and message prospects” to “help me run my GTM motion.” That only works if Apollo can connect to the customer’s systems, send through trusted channels, respect their rules, diagnose what breaks, and help sales and marketing teams scale without creating risk.
This is not a narrow deliverability role. It spans mailbox connectivity, domain setup, ESPs, marketing systems, CRMs, suppression sources, routing systems, workflow automation, diagnostics, and the infrastructure that makes Apollo a trusted GTM execution platform.
This is the opportunity: build the connected messaging and execution foundation that lets Apollo become the operating system for modern GTM.
