INTRODUCTION
SentiLink provides innovative identity and risk solutions, empowering institutions and individuals to transact with confidence. We’re building the future of identity verification in the United States, replacing a clunky, ineffective, and expensive status quo with solutions that are 10x faster, smarter, and more accurate. We’ve seen tremendous traction and are growing extremely quickly. Our real-time APIs have helped verify hundreds of millions of identities, starting with financial services and rapidly expanding into new markets. SentiLink is backed by world-class investors including Craft Ventures, Andreessen Horowitz, NYCA, and Max Levchin. We’ve earned recognition from TechCrunch, CNBC, Bloomberg, Forbes, Business Insider, PYMNTS, American Banker, LendIt, and have been named to the Forbes Fintech 50 list every year since 2023. Last but not least, we’ve even made history - we were the first company to go live with the eCBSV and testified before the United States House of Representatives on the future of identity. SentiLink supports a variety of ways to work, ranging from fully remote to in-office. We operate as a digital-first company with strong collaboration across the U.S. and India. We maintain physical offices in Austin, San Francisco, New York City, Seattle, Los Angeles, and Chicago in the U.S., and in Gurugram (Delhi) and Bengaluru in India. If you’re located near one of these offices, we would love for you to spend time in the office regularly. Some roles are hybrid or in-office by design. For example, our engineering team in India works primarily from our Gurugram office.
ROLE
As Head of Business Development at SentiLink, you will own the strategy and execution of our growth engine with a strong emphasis on pipeline creation and revenue generation.

You will act as a critical bridge between Marketing and Sales—owning top-of-funnel and early-stage pipeline while partnering closely with Account Executives to progress and close opportunities. While you will leverage support and partner with GTM Operations and analytics resources, your core mandate is to drive business development outcomes. This role is ideal for a commercially-minded operator with experience in B2B sales or business development or an AE who excels in sourcing and developing opportunities. Experience in fraud, identity, fintech, or financial services is strongly preferred to minimize ramp time and maximize impact. This is a remote, US-based role.

- Collaborate with Marketing (demand gen, events, content) to amplify pipeline generation efforts and convert interest into meetings
- Translate SentiLink’s fraud and identity solutions into clear, compelling value propositions tailored to customer pain points
- Identify and activate new growth channels including partnerships, industry events, and outbound campaigns
- Work cross-functionally with Product, Fraud Intelligence, and Solutions teams to develop personalized messaging to maximize prospect engagement
- Maintain strong pipeline hygiene, CRM discipline, and reporting in partnership with GTM Operations
- Provide feedback from the field to inform product positioning, roadmap, and go-to-market strategy
REQUIREMENTS
- 5+ years of experience in business development, sales, or go-to-market roles within B2B SaaS, fintech, or fraud/identity
- Experience in business development with demonstrated success in pipeline generation, OR as an AE with a strong focus on sourcing and early-stage deal development
- Strong interest in building a career in business development and/or progressing into a closing role
- Proven ability to prospect, engage, and build relationships with enterprise or mid-market stakeholders
- Creative problem-solving skills to determine GTM strategy
- Excellent communication skills with the ability to articulate complex, technical products in a clear and compelling way
- Highly proactive and self-driven with a strong bias toward action and ownership
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment with evolving priorities
- Familiarity with CRM tools such as Salesforce and sales engagement platforms
- Experience or familiarity with fraud, identity, or financial services is strongly preferred
- Willingness to travel up to 33% for client meetings and industry events
- Prior experience in fraud, identity, risk, or fintech industries strongly preferred
- Experience working closely with marketing or growth teams preferred
- Demonstrated progression in sales or business development roles preferred
- Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States and must live in the United States
COMPENSATION
$180,000 - $220,000/year + equity + benefits

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship in Head Of Business Development
Document your strategic revenue credentials early
PERM requires your employer to prove your qualifications match the job description exactly. Gather quantifiable evidence of revenue targets met, markets entered, and partnerships closed before the process starts, vague credentials delay labor certification.
Target companies with active PERM filing history
Search Migrate Mate to find employers who have previously sponsored Head of Business Development or senior commercial roles for green cards. A company with no prior PERM experience will face a longer internal approval process and higher legal costs.
Verify your role meets EB-2 advanced-degree requirements
EB-2 requires a U.S. master's degree or foreign equivalent, or a bachelor's degree plus five years of progressive experience in business development. Confirm your specific credentials qualify before targeting EB-2 positions to avoid a downgrade mid-process.
Understand how PERM prevailing-wage levels affect your offer
DOL assigns your position a wage level (I through IV) using the OFLC Wage Search before your employer files. A Level IV determination requires a higher offered salary, which some companies will not meet, so confirm wage level expectations during offer negotiations.
Ask employers about concurrent I-140 and I-485 filing
If your priority date is current, your employer can file the I-140 immigrant petition and your I-485 adjustment of status simultaneously. This shortens your path to a green card significantly and lets you remain in the U.S. throughout processing.
Use O*NET to align your job description with USCIS standards
USCIS and DOL cross-reference the O*NET occupation profile for business development roles when evaluating specialty occupation and PERM eligibility. Ensure your employer's job description matches the education and duties listed there to reduce audit risk.

Find Head Of Business Development JobsHead Of Business Development Green Card Sponsorship: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Head of Business Development role qualify for EB-2 or EB-3 green card sponsorship?
Most Head of Business Development positions qualify under EB-2 if the employer requires a master's degree or a bachelor's degree plus five years of progressive experience. Roles with a standard bachelor's degree requirement fall under EB-3. Your employer specifies the educational requirement in the PERM job description, which determines which category applies to your petition.
How does the PERM green card process differ from H-1B sponsorship for this role?
H-1B is a temporary nonimmigrant status capped at 85,000 per year with a lottery for most applicants. PERM-based green card sponsorship has no annual cap at the petition level and leads to permanent residency. The tradeoff is timeline: PERM labor certification alone takes six to twelve months before the I-140 is even filed, compared to H-1B processing measured in weeks.
How long does the full green card process take for a Head of Business Development hired from abroad?
For most nationalities outside India and China, the full EB-2 or EB-3 process runs roughly two to four years from PERM filing to green card approval. Indian and Chinese nationals face significantly longer waits due to per-country backlogs. PERM certification typically takes six to twelve months, I-140 adjudication adds several more months, and adjustment of status or consular processing follows.
Where can I find employers actively sponsoring Head of Business Development roles for green cards?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for this search. It surfaces employers with verified PERM and I-140 filing history for business development and commercial leadership roles, so you can focus your outreach on companies that have already committed to employment-based green card sponsorship rather than educating employers about the process from scratch.
Can my employer start PERM sponsorship while I'm on H-1B status?
Yes. Employers can and often do file PERM while you hold H-1B status. This is a common strategy because it lets you accumulate a priority date early. If your I-140 is approved and you hit the six-year H-1B cap, USCIS may grant extensions in one-year increments under AC21 until your green card is adjudicated, provided the I-140 has been pending or approved for at least 365 days.
