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.

Product Design @ Clay Clay is at an inflection point — $100M+ ARR, Series D, and a rapidly expanding customer base. We're building a dedicated growth pod to systematically accelerate acquisition, activation, and retention. You'll be the design lead for that pod, helping us turn growth hypotheses into experiments, and experiments into durable product experiences. As a senior–staff growth designer, you'll operate in two modes: embedded partner within the growth pod, and trusted consultant to other teams who need to run their own growth experiments. You'll create quick wins through experimentation while simultaneously building the systems and patterns that make future experimentation faster, more consistent, and less dependent on bespoke design. Questions We're Asking & Exploring - How do we quickly gather quantitative data and qualitative signal to identify our biggest growth levers — and use those insights to decide how to act on them? - How can growth experiments ship quickly without creating long-term design debt or inconsistent surfaces? - How do we design growth surfaces (onboarding flows, carousels, empty states, upgrade prompts) as modular, configurable components — so running a new variant means changing content or parameters, not rebuilding from scratch? - How do we know when a growth solution has proven itself enough to become a shared pattern? What does it take for something to graduate from a one-off experiment into the design system? ## What You'll Do - Ship growth experiments. Partner with the growth PM and EM to design and deliver experiments across acquisition, activation, and retention — from quick A/B tests to larger feature bets — with a clear eye on measurable impact. - Drive evidence-informed prioritization. Synthesize quantitative signal (funnel data, experiment results) and qualitative insight (research, interviews) to continuously surface the highest-leverage opportunities — and make the case for investing in them. - Align stakeholders across EPD. Influence roadmap direction, communicate tradeoffs clearly, and build buy-in across PM, Engineering, and leadership for both short-term wins and longer-term systems investments. - Build systems that scale experimentation. Design flexible, reusable patterns (onboarding carousels, contextual tooltips, empty states, upgrade prompts) that enable the team — and the broader org — to run experiments without requiring bespoke design each time. - Enable other teams as a growth consultant. Step outside the pod to advise other teams on high-leverage growth moments, providing frameworks, patterns, and design guidance so they can execute with confidence on their own. ## What You'll Bring - Growth design experience. You've shipped experiments in a growth or product-led growth context — you understand funnels, activation loops, and how small UX changes can have outsized impact. - Evidence-informed approach. You're comfortable using both quant (analytics, A/B tests, funnels) and qual (research, interviews, usability studies) to shape decisions — but you know data informs judgment, not replaces it. - Consulting & influence skills. You can embed in a pod and step back to advise other teams. You're skilled at building alignment, influencing without authority, and helping others level up their design thinking. - Scalable systems mindset. You instinctively ask "how do we design this so the next experiment is easier?" You build patterns and frameworks, not just screens. - Clear design process. You can identify the right problems to solve, consider multiple solutions, and speak intelligently about tradeoffs. You develop process in service of a shared goal, not just for the sake of having one. - Excellent communication & collaboration. You default to visual communication, but also have strong verbal and written communication skills. You're comfortable with both synchronous and asynchronous work across a fast-moving team. - Pixel-perfect craft. You care about getting things right — and you inspire your engineering partners to have the same level of care. - 8–12+ years of experience, with a track record of operating at staff level or above — able to define your own scope, drive strategic direction, and mentor others. At least some of that time should be in a growth, PLG, or experimentation-focused role. ## About Clay Labs ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Clay is a creative go-to-market (GTM) platform that helps teams build automated systems to grow revenue by combining data enrichment, AI agents, and workflow orchestration. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series C expansion at $3.1B valuation, tender offer at $5B) - **Headquarters**: New York, New York, United States - **Founded**: 2017 - **Founders**: Not publicly disclosed in available sources ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Go-to-market (GTM) software / Sales & Marketing technology - **Target customers**: B2B GTM teams of all sizes – from solo operators to enterprise sales, marketing, and revenue teams - **Mission**: Help people grow businesses by providing the best data foundation possible to reach their best-fit customers ## Products & Services - **Data Marketplace**: Access to 200+ data and AI vendors in one contract – enabling teams to buy, enrich, and combine first-party, intent, and third-party data. - **Agents**: Create AI agents that mimic top sales representatives to automate research, prep, and follow-ups. - **Orchestration**: Build multi-step workflows that connect GTM tools (CRM, email, ads) and trigger actions based on real-time signals. - **Automated Outbound**: Programmatically generate 1:1 messaging, launch new plays in days, and scale outbound campaigns. - **Lead Scoring & Routing**: Enrich, score, and route every lead to the right rep in minutes. - **Pre‑Call Prep Agent**: Researches prospect bios, earnings reports, and company changes to fully automate pre‑call prep. ## Market Standing - **Valuation**: $5B (via employee tender offer, January 2026); previous Series C at $3.1B (2025) - **Key Metric**: Annual revenue of $35.5M; total funding $202M - **Notable Investors**: Sequoia Capital, CapitalG, First Round Capital, Meritech Capital Partners - **Growth Signals**: - Headcount of 792 employees (+74.6% YoY) - 500,000+ GTM teams trust Clay - Named #1 mid-stage company on the ENT30 list - Only GTM company on Forbes’ 2025 AI 50 List - Customer case studies: Anthropic 3× enrichment rate, OpenAI automated pre‑call prep, Intercom grew outbound pipeline 140%, Vanta cut follow‑up time from 3 days to <1, Mistral AI cut TAM mapping from 2 months to 10 days - Active job postings grew 763% YoY; operates in 47 countries ## Competitive Advantages - **Unique combination of data marketplace + AI agents + workflow automation** in a single platform – reduces the need for multiple tools and manual coordination. - “A single person can run growth campaigns that previously required coordinating the entire GTM team.” - **Massive data marketplace** (200+ vendors) with one contract simplifies data procurement. - **Network effects** – 500,000+ users contribute to a growing community of GTM engineers. ## Strategic Focus - Deepen AI capabilities in agentic workflows for GTM - Expand the data marketplace with more vendors and intent signals - Continue scaling globally (already in 47 countries) and hiring aggressively (164 open roles) - Build out ecosystem partnerships and enable customers to become “GTM engineers” ## Why Work Here - **Culture**: Kindness, creativity, “quiet ego”, and a focus on helping each other grow.
