Go-to-Market Engineer (Sales) @ Clay

We’re hiring a Go-To-Market Engineer! Other job titles we tested out for this high-profile enterprise sales and thought partnership role include—Sales Engineer, Outbound Architect, and Growth Strategist. 

We’ll tell you right now: the take home assignment for this role is to build something amazing in Clay. Feel free to go ahead and build it and send it to us if you’re really excited! 

You might be right for our GTM Engineer role if you answer YES to the following questions:

1. Do you know what Clay is and have you used it? Or, are you excited and eager to become an expert Clay user?

2. Can you explain to a nontechnical person what they need to build an effective tech stack?

3. Are you energized by the challenge of staying up-to-date on emerging sales tech solutions?  

4. Are you excited to become very good at sales? Even if you don’t know the first thing about sales now?

5. Do you have a product mindset and can you translate the learnings you are getting from customers to improve the product directly?

Our current GTM Engineers have diverse backgrounds. We've got ex-civil engineers, growth leaders, software engineers, founders, marketers, and high school teachers on the team. All that is to say, they differ in experience, but they resemble our customers.

Here’s what you can expect to do from Day One: 

• Shadow high-profile sales calls with prospective customers at companies you’ve definitely heard of. 

• Have high visibility on existing customer challenges in a support-and-inform capacity.

• Develop expert-level understanding of Clay.

• Start helping customers - big and small - adopt Clay!

Here’s what you can expect to do after you’re onboarded:

• Help enterprise and middle-market companies like Anthropic, Verkada, and Intercom get value from Clay 

• Help smaller customers in a “sales assist” motion further adopt more Clay use cases

• Translate learnings from customers into content and product improvement

In a nutshell, we need: 

• Systems thinkers 

• Sales tech aficionados 

• Comfortable conversationalists

• Supportive team members

• Documentation-minded record-keepers
