To clarify, Clay doesn’t receive data directly from LinkedIn, but rather through third-party data providers that source information from LinkedIn. The discrepancy you're seeing might be due to overlapping job functions that the 24 LinkedIn-listed employees have self-identified.
For instance, on the location section of the same page, it shows that these 24 publicly associated members are based in France, with further breakdowns by specific cities and areas. The "job function" filter may only capture roles where it's 100% certain that the position falls under the "Engineering" category.
If you're looking to scale this analysis, I’d recommend testing with a few other companies to compare results.
Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions :)
