Summary
Kareem Amin will take TechCrunch Disrupt’s AI Stage on Oct. 13-15 to explain how AI created the GTM engineer role and what AI-native go-to-market operations look like in practice.
Clay says the job category, which it coined in 2023, uses AI, data and automation to turn prospect research, lead qualification, outreach and workflow handoffs into repeatable revenue systems.
About 100 GTM engineer job listings now appear each month, according to Clay, as companies rethink whether to add headcount or build systems that let existing sales and marketing teams do more.
Clay’s own growth underscores that shift: TechCrunch reported its ARR tripled to $100 million in a year, before the company raised a $115 million Series D in September at a $7.1 billion valuation.
The session is part of 200-plus Disrupt events in San Francisco, where more than 10,000 attendees are expected as AI reshapes how companies organize growth work.
