From 'Managing Data' to 'Engineering Revenue'

In B2B business sales and marketing operations, significant time has traditionally been spent on 'manual administrative tasks' such as CRM (Customer Relationship Management) data entry, manually creating outreach lists, and sending one-off emails.

However, over the past 1–2 years, a completely new profession—'GTM Engineer'—has rapidly emerged, primarily in the United States. Their role goes far beyond simply 'managing' sales activities. It involves 'designing and building systems through code and technology that determine which customers to approach, when, and how, to maximize revenue using AI and automation technologies'.

In fact, Clay, the U.S. company that defined this function, completed a $100 million funding round in 2025 at a valuation of $3.1 billion (approximately ¥460 billion). They publicly stated their goal was 'to establish GTM engineering as a new career path in the industry,' sending shockwaves through the business world.
