Job Description:

Business: SquidProxies
Location: Lahore, Pakistan

Employment Type: Full-Time

Salary: PKR 140,000 per month

Business: SquidProxies.com

Role Overview:

We are looking for a motivated and resourceful Business Development Representative in Lahore to help us build and grow a direct B2B sales channel for SquidProxies.com, our proxy infrastructure business.
This is a full-time opportunity for someone who is comfortable researching companies, approaching potential customers, building relationships, and experimenting with different ways to generate business.

Our direct sales channel is still at an early stage, which means you will not simply be following an established sales playbook. You will work closely with our team to identify potential customers, test different outreach strategies, learn what works, and help us develop a repeatable approach to generating qualified business opportunities.

A major initial focus will be identifying software companies, data scraping businesses, eCommerce companies, digital agencies, and other technology businesses that already use, or are likely to need, proxy infrastructure.

What You'll Do:

  • Research and identify companies that may have a genuine need for proxy infrastructure.
  • Build a targeted pipeline of potential B2B customers in Lahore, across Pakistan, and eventually other markets.
  • Identify companies offering services such as web scraping, data collection, automation, price monitoring, SEO, or market intelligence.
  • Reach out to founders, CTOs, developers, technical leads, and other relevant decision-makers.
  • Contact prospects through LinkedIn, email, WhatsApp, phone calls, and other appropriate channels.
  • Develop relationships with software houses, technology companies, digital agencies, eCommerce businesses, and data-focused companies.
  • Where appropriate, meet or visit companies in Lahore to introduce SquidProxies and better understand their requirements.
  • Understand what proxy providers prospects currently use and identify opportunities where SquidProxies may offer a better solution.
  • Qualify prospects to determine whether they have a genuine proxy-related requirement.
  • Arrange meetings, introductions, or product discussions with qualified potential customers.
  • Follow up consistently with prospects and help move opportunities through the business development process.
  • Maintain accurate records of outreach, conversations, follow-ups, prospects, and opportunities.
  • Experiment with different prospecting approaches, messaging, industries, and outreach strategies.
  • Share insights with the SquidProxies team about customer needs, objections, and opportunities discovered in the market.
  • Help us develop a repeatable B2B business development process that can eventually be expanded into other cities and markets.

What We're Looking For

We are less concerned about having a traditional sales background and more interested in finding someone who is smart, motivated, resourceful, and comfortable taking initiative.
You may be a good fit if you:

  • Have a good understanding of Pakistan's software and technology ecosystem.
  • Are comfortable researching companies and identifying which ones may be worth approaching.
  • Can confidently start conversations with founders, CTOs, developers, and other decision-makers.
  • Have strong communication and relationship-building skills.
  • Are persistent and willing to follow up without being overly aggressive.
  • Are comfortable working independently and taking ownership of your goals.
  • Can learn a technical product well enough to understand customer requirements and communicate its value.
  • Enjoy experimenting with different approaches instead of relying only on a predefined sales script.
  • Have good written and verbal English communication skills.
  • Are based in Lahore and comfortable meeting potential customers locally when useful.

Existing connections with software houses, development companies, startups, digital agencies, eCommerce businesses, or technology professionals would be a strong advantage.

Previous Experience

Previous experience in business development, B2B sales, lead generation, account management, recruitment, software development, or another relationship-driven technology role is helpful, but not mandatory.
We are particularly interested in candidates who can demonstrate:

  • Strong initiative and ownership.
  • The ability to research and identify promising companies.
  • Confidence communicating with technical decision-makers.
  • An understanding of how software or technology businesses operate.
  • Strong networking and relationship-building abilities.
  • The persistence required to turn initial conversations into qualified business opportunities.
  • Candidates with a technical background who are interested in moving into business development or technology sales are also encouraged to apply.

Customer Use Cases

Potential SquidProxies customers may use proxy infrastructure for:

  • Web scraping and automated data collection.
  • eCommerce data collection.
  • Price monitoring and comparison.
  • Market and competitor intelligence.
  • SEO and search automation.
  • Data aggregation.
  • Large-scale website monitoring.
  • AI and data collection workflows.

Other automation requiring reliable access to public websites.
One of the most important parts of this role will be determining which companies actually have these requirements.

For example, a software company advertising web scraping or data collection services may already be purchasing proxies from another provider and could therefore be a strong potential customer.

What Success Looks Like

Because we are still developing this business development channel, success will initially be measured not only by closed customers, but also by your ability to:

  • Build a strong pipeline of relevant companies.
  • Identify genuine proxy users.
  • Start conversations with the right decision-makers.
  • Generate qualified meetings and opportunities.
  • Learn which industries and outreach methods produce the strongest results.
  • Convert qualified prospects into paying SquidProxies customers.
  • Help us develop a business development process that can be repeated and scaled.

If we can successfully build this channel in Lahore, our longer-term goal is to expand the same approach into other technology hubs and markets.

Compensation & Growth

  • PKR 140,000 per month
  • Full-time employment.
  • Opportunity to grow alongside the business development function as we establish and scale the channel.
  • Strong performers may have the opportunity to take on greater responsibility as the business grows.

What You'll Gain

  • Direct experience building a B2B business development channel from the ground up.
  • Hands-on experience working with a technology infrastructure product.
  • Exposure to international sales and business development.
  • Direct collaboration with the SquidProxies and AutoScale Ventures teams.
  • The opportunity to experiment with prospecting and outreach strategies rather than simply following an existing script.
  • Significant ownership over how the business development process evolves.
  • Opportunity to grow into a larger sales or business development role as the channel expands.

About Us:

AutoScale Ventures is a technology-driven company with 50+ team members across the Philippines, Pakistan, India, the U.S., China, and Canada.
We operate a portfolio of technology, data, infrastructure, and AI businesses, including:

  • VinAudit.com — vehicle history and automotive market data.

If you are resourceful, confident approaching businesses, interested in technology, and excited by the challenge of helping build a business development channel from the ground up, we'd like to hear from you.
