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 at $7.1B Valuation led by Wellington — and are on track to cross $200M in revenue this quarter.

We also launched a $1M Scholarship fund for GTME Education.

We're looking for a Partner Technical Engineer to join our Data & Integration Partnerships team. This role owns two mission-critical components of Clay's data marketplace: the technical quality bar for every provider, and the technical readiness of every new partner before they go live.

On the data side, you'll work with the Data team to define our end-to-end testing methodology. This includes building standard test kits and the scoring models that determine which providers are integrated, if they make the waterfall, and their relative ranking. Your testing will serve as a strategic input for margin, coverage, and partner tiering decisions across a 200+ provider portfolio.

On the partner side, you will own technical readiness for onboarding. You'll act as our technical gatekeeper—assessing a prospective partner's delivery method, auth pattern, rate limits, and data structure before commercial discussions begin, and certifying that new partners are truly integration-ready before launch.

You'll work directly with partners like Salesforce, Hub Spot, Nooks, and dozens of data enrichment providers, and collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, Partnerships and external partner tech teams.

• Act as the technical lead for the partnerships team, joining prospective partner meetings from day 0 to design the joint solution.
• Prototype integration concepts fast enough to answer "can we actually do this?" inside a live partner conversation.
• Design the 'build' partner motion on Clay's public API and MCP [this bullet is vague in the current draft too — one clause on what a working build motion produces would fix it].
• Translate partner and customer feedback into roadmap priorities for Product and Engineering, and give GTM what they need to run RFPs and POCs on newly launched integrations.

• Own the evaluation system that decides which providers get integrated, which make the waterfall, and how they rank — the calls that determine…
