Clay CEO Kareem Amin will explain the GTM engineer role at Disrupt after a $7.1 billion Series D valuation.
TechCrunch previewed a Disrupt 2026 talk by Clay co-founder and CEO Kareem Amin on the GTM engineer role, which Clay says it coined in 2023. Claygent, an OpenAI-powered agent, automates research and outreach, and Clay cited roughly 100 related job listings a month. The company reportedly tripled ARR to $100 million, held a tender at a $5 billion valuation, and in September raised a $115 million Series D at $7.1 billion, plus a $1 million GTM-engineer scholarship.
