In 2026, we announced our second employee tender offer in 9 months at a new $5B valuation. We also launched a community equity round, for our customers, agency partners, and club members.

We're looking for a Revenue Accountant who is excited to own revenue recognition, using next-gen accounting tooling to build the processes and ASC 606 conclusions in an evolving consumption-based pricing model. You'll be part of a modern, AI-forward accounting team where revenue keeps pace with Clay's growth.

Contribute to revenue systems implementation and related process design as we scale our financial infrastructure, including mapping the chart of accounts and revenue rules to the new GL
Support the company's first-year financial audit — preparing schedules, documentation, and responding to auditor requests
Look for opportunities to apply AI and modern tooling to streamline revenue accounting and close workflows

What You'll Bring
