About Clay

Clay is a creative tool for growth. Our mission is to help businesses grow — without huge investments in tooling or manual labor. We’re already helping over 100,000 people grow their business with Clay. From local pizza shops to enterprises like Anthropic and Notion, our tool lets you instantly translate any idea that you have for growing your company into reality.

We believe that modern GTM teams win by finding GTM alpha — a unique competitive edge powered by data, experimentation, and automation. Clay is the platform they use to uncover hidden signals, build custom plays, and launch faster than their competitors. We’re looking for sharp, low-ego people to help teams find their GTM alpha.

Why is Clay the best place to work?

• Customers love the product (100K+ users and growing)

• We’re growing a lot (6x YoY last year, and 10x YoY the two years before that)

• Incredible culture (our customers keep applying to work here)

• Well-resourced - We raised a $100M Series C in 2025 at a $3.1B valuation and are backed by world-class investors like Capital G (Google), Sequoia and Meritech

Growth, Lifecycle @ Clay

We’re seeking a Growth Lead to scale our Lifecycle efforts. This role requires someone who can clearly understand Clay’s customer segments and how each individual builds the habit of using our product. Additionally, this person needs to work really well cross-functionally to ensure we’re communicating the right updates to customers and the community.

What You’ll Do

• You will be the main driver of Clay’s email and in-product notification channels, owning all company communications as well as experiments to improve core metrics.

• You will obsess over our email onboarding process, building different tracks for different personas and use cases.

• You will obsess on how our core market segments and personas build the habit of using Clay. You will then experiment with how we can manufacture habit loops through different forms of notifications.

• You will partner very closely with our GTM Ops team to ensure you have all of the right audience segments and tracking infrastructure to implement campaigns.

• You will work closely with Content and Product Marketing to launch ongoing company announcements and product features with clear and concise copy.

• You will work closely with Brand to ensure our emails fit our guidelines and have a strong brand presence.

What You'll Bring

• Experience with building lifecycle motions that drive impact in activation and product engagement.

• Experience working with cross-functional teams across Marketing, Brand, Content, and Ops to ensure marketing campaigns are being launched successfully.

• Experience building internal processes to optimize operations within the lifecycle function.

• Experience with experimentation - comfortable with establishing MDEs, experiment runtime, etc. but also clearly understanding when we should just run a pre and post analysis.
