Key responsibilities & impact

You're defining what it means to be a GTM engineer – building the programs that train them, the community that connects them, and the resources that keep them at the frontier of a rapidly scaling, AI-native profession.
You'll bring the idea, the plan, and the execution. We'll bring the platform, the brand, the community, and the resources to make it real.
You own a wedge end-to-end. From strategy to execution to measurement, with full creative latitude and full accountability for the outcome.
You operate as a founder inside the team. You set the roadmap for your wedge, recruit the resources you need, and ship in public.
You compound the ecosystem. Your work makes Cohorts, University, Community, Talent Marketplace, and our partners better – not parallel to them.
You move at AI-native pace. Weeks, not quarters. You'd rather ship a scrappy v1 and learn than wait six months for a polished v3.
You raise the bar around you. The team gets sharper because you're on it – your ideas, your taste, and your standards become part of how we operate.

What you’ll need

A clear thesis. What is the role? What problem does it solve for the GTME Ecosystem, and why now? Where does it plug into our existing surface areas (Cohorts, University, Community, Clubs, Talent Marketplace, Partnerships, Campus, Certifications) – or what new surface area does it create?
A 30/60/90 plan. What would you ship in your first 30, 60, and 90 days? What would success look like at 6 and 12 months? Be specific about outputs, not just intentions.
A portfolio of past work. Show us things you've built, shipped, written, taught, hosted, designed, or grown. Side projects, communities, content, products, events – we care less about the form and more about the evidence that you ship.
A point of view on the GTME profession. What do you believe about GTM engineering that most people don't? How does your role help us push that belief into reality?
Why Clay, why this team, why now. We want people who are obsessed with this space, not just looking for the next role.
