About Clay

AI is unleashing the biggest wave of company creation in history. Clay's mission is to be the engine those companies use to grow to their full potential.

Clay predicts the next best action for your business and then helps you take it. We started by aggregating the best data for B2B companies. Then, we built the infrastructure to run any personalized campaign on top of it, including emails, ads, landing pages, and workflows that make reps more productive. Now, we're building agents that can help grow your company for you. We're already helping thousands of customers - including Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and Visa - go to market with unique data, signals, and AI research.

In 2026, we raised a $115M Series D at $7.1B Valuation led by Wellington - and are on track to cross $200M in revenue this quarter. We also launched a $1M Scholarship fund for GTME Education.

GTM Engineer @ Clay

Clay is the GTM platform of choice for the best revenue teams in the world. From Anthropic to Notion to Stripe, growth teams use Clay to find their GTM Alpha. Our journey to $100M ARR was powered by creativity and a belief that the best GTM teams treat their go-to-market like a product: constantly shipping new plays, experimenting, and never assuming that what worked last quarter will work next quarter. We sell that way too.

This is Clay's highest-volume sales motion. You'll sell Clay to hundreds of SMB and mid-market customers every quarter, helping them discover how Clay fits into their GTM stack and turning them into power users. The role is perfect for someone who loves getting into the nitty-gritty of how a business grows revenue and can move fast without sacrificing quality.

Our High Velocity GTMEs have diverse backgrounds: ex-product managers, professional love coaches, BDRs, and founders. They differ in experience, but they resemble our customers, and they all love GTM hacking.

What You'll Do

  • Own and close a high volume of SMB and mid-market deals end-to-end
  • Help customers discover and adopt Clay use cases that map to their specific GTM motion
  • Run fast, consultative sales cycles that balance speed with genuine product understanding
  • Provide technical guidance during the sales process, meeting customers where they are
  • Collaborate with product teams, translating customer feedback into feature improvements
  • Develop your consultative selling skills while staying at the forefront of emerging sales technologies

What You'll Bring

  • 2+ years of GTM experience (Sales, RevOps, Growth, Marketing) or a technical role (Product, Solutions/Sales Engineering)
  • Hands-on experience with Clay or similar GTM tools (bonus if you’ve built something you’re proud of)
  • High business IQ: you can quickly understand how a prospect’s GTM motion works and identify where Clay creates value
  • Creative and resourceful, with a bias toward experimentation and finding clever ways to use AI tools in your own work
  • Clear communicator who can go deep with technical buyers and make it click for non-technical ones
  • Curious by default. You enjoy getting under the hood to see how systems work

Why This Role

This is one of the highest-performing sales teams at Clay. You'll become a product expert, learn how the best GTM teams in tech actually operate, and build the selling skills that will define the next generation of salespeople. The growth opportunity here is real: our GTMEs have gone on to lead segments, manage teams, and take on roles across the company. You'll learn, earn, and grow.

Meet our amazing GTME crew!
