Building the first spreadsheet that fills itself is no easy feat. It takes a huge amount of creativity, discipline and attention to detail. It also takes a team of brilliant minds, collaborating, supporting and learning from each other.
We're excited to be growing our team and glad to have you here. If any of these roles sound interesting to you (or you're simply curious about what we're building), email us on [email protected] or apply on Lever.
Expanding creativity by making programming more accessible
Clay is built on the belief that the mundane can be automated away, that each individual is deeply creative, and that there is immense possibility in expanding this creativity by making programming more accessible. With 20 million developers in the world, but over 1 billion spreadsheet users, we're driven to expand access to programming to an order of magnitude more people — starting with a spreadsheet.
We love thinking a little bigger and considering the role of what we're building within our industry and society. A few (constantly evolving) things we're interested in and thinking about:
📠 History. The history of spreadsheets & programming is long and winding. We're avid students of history as we believe it often makes for a richer understanding of how and why products are built the ways that they are, and how and why users behave in the ways they do.
🌎 Inclusion. What it should, and could, look like to build a new type of organization that is mindful and inclusive. We're from Egypt, Romania, France, the UK, Kenya, Lebanon, Canada — and a couple more places when you dig a little further. We think a lot about the impact software has on a global scale, and how powerful each individual becomes when given the tools to build their own software.
🎨 Design and art, broadly. Craftsmanship, appreciation of detail, and enjoyment of the process (alongside the outcomes) are an important part of how we approach building here at Clay. If you like pairing ambitious goals with jamming, questioning and refining, we might just be for you.
