Hey everyone! Eric here, joining from NYC.
I came up through marketing, spent years running demand gen, and slowly backed my way into GTM engineering because I got tired of shipping campaigns on top of systems nobody actually owned. The day I found out half my target accounts were sitting in a CRM my tools couldn't even see, something clicked: the interesting work wasn't the campaign, it was the plumbing underneath it.
So I went and learned the plumbing. Most recently as founding GTM Engineer at an AI-native CRM, building automations, wiring up integrations, and putting a Claude agent right into the pipeline. These days I'm all-in on the GTM engineering side, and I just joined AlphaForge Cohort 2 to get sharper next to people who've been building systems longer than I have.
Genuinely excited to be in here. I love this stuff, so if you're building something cool, nerding out on Clay, or just figuring it out like the rest of us, say hi. Let's build!
