Clay is a fast-growing AI-enabled SaaS platform for go-to-market data enrichment and workflow automation, backed by Sequoia and CapitalG with $100M+ in revenue and a $5B valuation. The company is hiring a Data Scientist to join its Data Science and Analytics team, embedded as a strategic partner with Product, Marketing, Sales, Finance, or Partnerships.
In this role, you will own end-to-end analytical challenges: designing and analyzing experiments, building causal inference models (including propensity-score matching for incrementality measurement), and developing predictive models that guide business decisions. You'll define how Clay measures success by shaping metric trees that connect team-level KPIs to company outcomes, establishing success criteria for product launches, and building forecasting frameworks. You'll investigate root-cause anomalies, answer nuanced behavioral questions, and create new analysis frameworks when existing patterns don't apply. As a trusted analytical partner to senior leaders, you'll translate ambiguous strategic questions into rigorous, decision-ready analysis and teach the organization what to focus on.
You bring 5+ years of data science experience with demonstrated ownership of experimentation, causal inference, or predictive modeling. You have strong product and business sense—connecting analysis to decisions and revenue with a track record of directly influencing product and business outcomes. You're expert in SQL and Python, with strong statistical foundations in experiment design, effect estimation, and exploratory analysis. You're experienced using AI tools (Claude Code, Cursor, or similar) to accelerate analytical workflows, as Clay's team is AI-forward. You communicate clearly and can influence senior stakeholders.
Nice-to-haves include experience with Snowflake, GitHub, dbt, Hex, Sigma, or Dagster; product-led growth or B2B SaaS (especially usage-based pricing); and partnering with ML engineers to productionize models.
Clay values ownership, thoughtfulness, creative problem-solving, and impact. The company offers unique culture and benefits, including free coaching from world-class experts in creativity and management, and an inclusive community of 11,000+ customers and 30k Slack members.
