Episode notes
Clay's Dual GTM Engineering Teams
- Everett describes two GTM engineering teams: four customer-facing and six internal ops engineers working like an engineering team.
- The internal team triages tickets, ships biweekly releases, and maintains Clay's Slack app and integrations.
GTM Engineering Operates Like Dev
- Clay's core stack is Clay, Snowflake, Salesforce and Gong with Slack as a rep surface.
- The internal GTM engineering team owns automations, data quality, and releases like a traditional software engineering org.
Automate QBRs And Handoff Decks
- Automate repetitive deliverables like QBR and handoff decks by piping Salesforce, Gong and Snowflake into templated Google Slides.
- Let ops or GTM engineering generate and publish those decks so teams can focus on customer conversations.
