Revenue Accountant

AI is unleashing the biggest wave of company creation in history. Clay's mission is to be the engine those companies use to grow to their full potential.

Clay predicts the next best action for your business and then helps you take it. We started by aggregating the best data for B2B companies.

Now, we're building agents that can help grow your company for you. We're already helping thousands of customers — including Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and Visa — go to market with unique data, signals, and AI research.

In 2026, we raised a $115M Series D at $7.1B Valuation led by Wellington — and are on track to cross $200M in revenue this quarter. We also launched a $1M Scholarship fund for GTME Education.

Clay is in hypergrowth mode, and we're building the financial infrastructure to match. This is a foundational hire on the Accounting team and an opportunity to get in early, shape how we operate, and grow alongside the business.

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.

• Support revenue recognition under ASC 606, with a strong focus on consumption-based models and new revenue streams as Clay's business evolves

• Prepare and maintain deferred and unbilled revenue schedules, ensuring accurate balance sheet presentation each period

• Prepare the deferred contract cost schedule (e.g. sales commissions), including amortization methodology and period determination

• Execute month-end close activities including journal entries, reconciliations, and flux analysis to support leadership reporting

• Document technical accounting positions (contract modifications, material rights, etc.) under ASC 606

• 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

• 5–8 years of progressive accounting experience with meaningful exposure to revenue accounting; Big Four or public accounting / audit experience a plus

• Active CPA required

• Solid knowledge of ASC 606 and US GAAP revenue principles, including consumption-based revenue models

• Data fluent, you are comfortable working with large datasets to diagnose revenue issues; SQL is a strong plus

• Excellent written communication, you are equally clear explaining a revenue position to an auditor or a business partner

• Proven track record of finding creative ways to automate and streamline processes, whether through a revenue system implementation, AI tooling, or workflow automation

• Experience at a high-growth startup

• Experience with a revenue and/or consumption metering tool implementation (e.g. Metronome, or similar)

• Experience with CPQ and CRM tools

• Hands-on experience applying AI tools (e.g., Claude, Cursor) to automate processes or tasks
