Testimonials
Trusted by teams that hire with us
-
LATAM has been a gold mine for talent. Our CloudTask hires understand our company culture and mission, and they connect with our customers in a way that drives high NPS and CX scores.
David Barrett CEO, Expensify -
At first we were an SF-based team only. Then I met Amir Reiter back in 2018. After visiting Medellín, I knew LATAM would be key to our growth and success.
Tim Zheng CEO, Apollo.io -
After meeting my CX and CS team in Medellín, we immediately loved the culture and the work ethic. As a European-HQ company, we found LATAM to be perfect to service our American clients.

SKILLS
Top capabilities to look for in a Clay expert
What separates someone who has opened a Clay table from someone who can own your GTM data.
-
ICP translated into a table
Starts from a description of your best customers and builds the columns, filters and scoring that find more of them, and can explain why each one is there.
-
Waterfalls built with intent
Orders enrichment providers on purpose, stops once a field is found and knows which columns are worth paying to fill.
-
Research that answers a question
Uses Claygent and AI formulas to answer a specific question about each account, not to generate paragraphs nobody reads.
-
Signals used with judgment
Turns job changes, funding and stack changes into triggers, and knows when a signal is noise rather than a buying moment.
-
Clean data before the push
Verifies emails, removes duplicates and checks the output by hand before anything reaches the CRM or a sequence.
-
A clean handoff to the CRM
Maps fields, decides which system owns each record and prevents Clay from overwriting data your reps already fixed.
-
Measuring what the table produces
Tracks coverage, spend and the meetings that come from each list, so the tables get better instead of just bigger.
-
Documentation that outlives the builder
Writes down how each table works and what feeds what, so the setup survives the person who built it.
HIRING GUIDE
How to hire a Clay expert
Hiring someone to run Clay well comes down to three decisions: whether the work belongs inside your team or with an agency, what the person will actually build, and how you verify it before day one. This guide walks through each one, then explains how CloudTask matches you with a vetted Clay expert from Latin America.
A Clay expert inside your team or a Clay agency?
A Clay agency is an outside firm that builds tables and workflows for several clients at once. It can be a good fit for a one-time project: a first set of tables, an audit, or a migration from spreadsheets.
The limit shows up after launch. Lists go stale, providers change, your ICP moves and the sales team asks for new fields every week. A Clay expert inside your team works on your data every day, joins your pipeline meetings and adjusts the tables as the business changes. If Clay feeds your outbound every week, the work is ongoing, and ongoing work usually belongs to someone on your team.
What a Clay expert actually builds
Most of the work is tables: a raw list goes in, and enriched, scored and verified records come out, ready for the CRM or a sequence. Around the tables sit waterfalls that try several data providers in order, Claygent research that answers questions about each account, and triggers that react to signals such as job changes, funding or stack changes.
The work overlaps with what some teams call a GTM engineer. The difference that matters for hiring is the scope: this page is about a person who operates Clay for a sales, marketing or RevOps team, not about building software.
Decide whether you need a builder or an operator
Clay work comes in two shapes. A builder designs the tables, the waterfalls and the connections to the CRM and outbound tools. An operator runs them every day: loads new lists, checks the output, fixes what breaks and hands clean records to the reps.
Small teams often want one person to do both, and it can work. Write down which half matters more before you brief anyone, because a builder who hates routine and an operator who has never designed a table are both common.
Enrichment spend is part of the job
Every enrichment column in Clay has a cost in your account, and a table that enriches every row with every provider spends far more than it needs to. A strong candidate decides which fields are worth filling, in what order the providers run, and when a row is not worth enriching at all.
Ask how they would cut the spend of an existing table without losing the fields the reps actually use. The answer tells you whether they have owned a budget or only built tables.
The handoff to the CRM and to outbound
A Clay table is only useful when its output lands somewhere. When the push to the CRM is careless, duplicates appear, good data gets overwritten and reps stop trusting both systems.
Ask how they have pushed data into Salesforce or HubSpot: which fields Clay is allowed to write, how duplicates are prevented, and how enriched lists reach the sequencing tool without someone copying files by hand.
What to check in the interview
Give the candidate a short description of your best customer and a raw list of companies, and ask them to talk through the Clay table they would build: columns, enrichment order, scoring and where the output goes. You will hear whether they think about the question the table answers or only about the features.
Then show them an AI formula or a Claygent prompt that produces generic output and ask what they would change first. A strong answer narrows the question, adds an example of a good result and explains how to check the output before it reaches a rep.
Red flags in Clay expert candidates
Features before the question. In the table exercise, a candidate who lists every integration before asking what the sales team needs will build tables nobody uses.
Enrich everything. A candidate who fills every column with every provider, and never mentions spend, will burn through your account without better data to show for it.
Generic AI output. If the fix for a weak prompt is a longer prompt, with no example and no check of the result, your reps will get research they cannot use.
Push without checking. A candidate who sends records straight to the CRM without verifying or removing duplicates will damage the data your whole team relies on.
Nothing written down. A candidate who has never documented a table will build a setup that only works while they are there.
How much does a Clay expert cost?
It depends on the scope, the seniority and the country the person works from, and any single number describes one scenario and calls it a price. Clay itself is billed by the vendor, separately, and the person works inside your own account.
What is worth understanding is the shape. On Managed Staffing it is one all-in monthly rate per person, with payments, compliance and replacement cover inside it. On Direct Hire it is a one-time fee of 20% to 30% of first-year base salary and the person goes on your payroll. We quote your number before you interview anyone.
How CloudTask hires for this role
You tell us whether you need a builder or an operator, the CRM and outbound tools Clay feeds, and the hours you need covered. We come back with 3 to 5 matched profiles within 48 hours, each one screened on a live call and verified against Clay and the tools you named.
You interview and choose. On Managed Staffing we handle payments, compliance and onboarding and stay involved with check-ins. On Direct Hire the person joins your payroll from day one. Both carry a replacement guarantee: 24 months on Managed Staffing, 6 months on Direct Hire.
