The posting

Company Description

SmartDev is a global software development and AI solutions company within the Verysell Group, headquarter in Swiss and having 2 major development centers in Hanoi and Da Nang. The company serves B2B clients across Media, Fintech, and Logistics in APAC, Europe, and North America.

SmartDev combines renowned Swiss quality with the Vietnamese passion to provide excellence and value. SmartDev brings together smart people both internally and externally to create partnerships that push boundaries and challenge the status quo.

The company is at a pivotal point in our journey: transitioning from a pure IT outsourcing provider to an AI-enabled solutions partner.

We have over 200 talented employees working both on-site and hybrid.

Job Description

SmartDev is looking for a Business Development Manager - an individual contributor with excellent solution selling skills who can create solid and AI competence sales funnels and drive sustainable, predictable growth in the APAC region.

We need a BDM as a hybrid player who can translate complex AI capabilities into tangible business outcomes. You will identify, prospect, and close enterprise deals for custom AI solutions. Unlike a standard SaaS BDM, you must be comfortable discussing data pipelines, model accuracy, and ethical AI with CTOs while building a value-based ROI case for CMOs and CDOs.

Strategic Business Development (70%)

  • Identify and target high-potential enterprise accounts across Media, Fintech, and Logistics.
  • Build a 12-month pipeline in AI solution opportunities.
  • Lead consultative discovery: Map client pain points (e.g., manual data entry, churn prediction, document processing) to AI solution blueprints.
  • Structure and negotiate complex contracts (POCs, pilot-to-production, managed services).
  • Develop strategic partnerships with SI partners, cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP), and tech vendors.

Solution & Technical Acumen (20%)

  • Collaborate with Solution Architects to scope technical feasibility and effort estimates.
  • Translate technical differentiators (e.g., fine-tuned vs. RAG-based LLM) into competitive business advantages.
  • Educate prospects on AI risks (hallucinations, data privacy, bias) and our mitigation strategies.

Internal Collaboration (10%)

  • Act as the voice of the customer to influence product roadmaps.
  • Work with Marketing to create AI-specific sales collateral (case studies, ROI calculators).
  • Provide feedback on pricing models (consumption-based, outcome-based, subscription).
  • Key Performance Indicators (KPIs): Pipeline generation; Won deals; Pilot-to-production conversion rate; Average deal cycle.

Qualifications

Must-Have:

  • 5+ years in B2B solution sales or business development, with at least 2 years selling AI, ML, or data science services.
  • Proven track record closing five-figure to six-figure solution deals (not just SaaS licenses).
  • Ability to articulate AI concepts (supervised vs. unsupervised learning, token pricing, fine-tuning).
  • Experience selling to a mix of technical (CTO, CDO) and business (COO, GM) personas.
  • Hunter mentality – comfortable with cold outreach, relationship mapping, and negotiation.

Nice-to-Have:

  • Experience with cloud AI services (Azure AI, SageMaker, Vertex AI).
  • Familiarity with data privacy regulations (GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA) in AI context.
  • Existing networks in Media, Fintech, and Logistics.

The Person:

  • Straight-talking with a genuine focus on delivery and building great relationships.
  • A natural problem solver with full accountability and responsibility for business.
  • Understands the value of transparency and ensures key stakeholders have full visibility of the sales pipelines and expected performance, creating contingency plans to mitigate risks and shortfalls.
  • Able to work autonomously and as part of a collaborative team.

Additional Information

BENEFITS:

  • 20 days of annual leave – Because work-life balance matters.
  • Premium healthcare package with MIC and comprehensive annual health check-ups
  • 13th salary bonus
  • Lunch allowance to fuel your productivity.
  • Exposure to cutting-edge technologies and Agile methodology in a dynamic, modern work environment.
  • Engaging company culture with fun activities like team buildings, company trips.
  • Chance to work with high-profile multinational clients, expanding your global experience and technical expertise.
  • Global collaboration – Work with both Vietnamese and international colleagues.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
