## Job description

### 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 https://www.linkedin.com/safety/go/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nytimes.com%2F2026%2F09%2F09%2Fbusiness%2Fdealbook%2Fclay-ai-fundraising.html%3Fsmid%3Durl-share%26unlocked_article_code%3D1._1A.E5rN.MeYsbgEsUKbB&urlhash=XS4q&mt=4bpSf4a8omAKuAHqAqZx6C11QpbLK_QwIhSV7gSf4Wf9aywPF_KBSiX9IkWE1AhXBEjPH8mK6fAEN7CMFlpvo0lPAtKRjs-dhgzYqHiVKUMCRtw0jScFgxWCRRfYs4HCX0YL9L6PCQz-edBLinvRdU_TaVUL2dA3&isSdui=true&lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_feed%3BoQmIsufoRJm7X2HC5Rqd%2Fw%3D%3D at $7.1B Valuation led by Wellington — and are on track to cross $200M in revenue this quarter.

### GTM ENGINEERING MANAGER (SALES)

As a GTME Manager at Clay, you'll lead and scale a team of Enterprise AEs (GTMEs) who combine technical expertise with a passion for helping customers unlock Clay's full potential. You'll build the processes, playbooks, and culture that enable your team to deliver world-class consultation at scale, while empowering the creativity that makes each engagement feel bespoke.

You're not just managing a sales team -- you're architecting how Clay shows up in the most complex, high-stakes GTM motions, and coaching GTMEs to become trusted advisors who reshape how companies think about growth.

### WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Build and develop a high-performing team: Recruit, onboard, and coach GTMEs who can balance technical depth and consultative selling. You know how to teambuild, create scalable enablement systems, and foster a culture where curiosity and impact thrive.

- Own and scale the GTME playbook: You love designing frameworks, discovery methodologies, demo structures, and qualification criteria, but you balance rigor with the flexibility your team needs to solve unique challenges. You know when to enforce the playbook and when to empower creativity.

- Bridge teams and influence product: Partner closely with Sales leadership, Product, and Customer Success. You will synthesize patterns from complex deals and translate them into actionable product feedback. You're the voice of the field, ensuring your team has the enablement and tools they need to win.

### WHAT YOU'LL BRING

This role is for someone who knows how to coach in the moment, stays close to deals, and builds structure that scales - without killing the creativity that makes technical selling an art.

- Experience leading technical GTM teams: You've had 6+ years of leading high-performing AEs, Solutions Engineers, Sales Engineers, or similar customer-facing teams.

- Proven deal execution experience in Strategic/Enterprise B2B sales cycles. You know when to get involved in a deal, how to navigate technical objections, and what it takes to win enterprise deals.

- Passion for building systems and GTM Automation: You believe in what Clay makes possible, and you're energized by the challenge of scaling a team that's redefining how enterprises build their GTM engine.

**Live in Claylabs’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
