Mike Clayville, a top executive at Stripe, a prominent digital payments company, recently left his position and is now assisting the startup Omniva with recruiting. Clayville, who formerly worked with Amazon Web Services, had been with Stripe for three and a half years and played a crucial role in expanding the company’s clientele base.

However, he chose to depart from Stripe as the firm found profitability through cost-cutting, primarily in sales and marketing divisions he was in charge of. It’s known that Clayville reported directly to the founders of Stripe, Patrick and John Collison, during his tenure with the company.

Omniva, the company Clayville is currently working with, maintains an air of mystery about its operations. As the public and the tech industry gain increasing interest in the startup, it will be interesting to watch it unfold, especially with the assistance of a seasoned executive like Clayville in its hiring process.
