Design-build and construction management across industrial, commercial, and institutional projects
Clayco is a full-service design-build and construction firm managing projects across North America with $7.6 billion in 2024 revenue. The tech stack reveals a traditional AEC (architecture, engineering, construction) operation: heavy reliance on Autodesk tools (Revit, AutoCAD, Navisworks, BIM 360), JD Edwards for enterprise resource planning, and Procore for project management—a mature, integrated setup typical of large general contractors. Hiring is construction-heavy (176 roles) with senior-level focus (167 of 285 active postings), and pain points cluster around safety compliance, cost control, and schedule management on complex projects.
Notable leadership hires: Project Director, MEP Director
