Job description

About Numeral: Numeral is transforming how taxes get done. Digital businesses today are bogged down by a painful web of regulations across 47 states and 70+ countries. We eliminate that burden so teams can focus on what they actually set out to build. We're the largest and fastest-growing AI-native tax solution. Founded in 2023, we've raised over $57M from Benchmark, Mayfield, Y Combinator, and others. We serve 3,000+ paying customers and have more than tripled revenue every year in our history.

About the role: You'll join our Commercial sales team at the steepest part of the growth curve. Your buyers are founders, CFOs, controllers, and ops leaders at e-commerce and fintech companies who are drowning in compliance work. Most of them know they have a problem. Your job is to run a sharp discovery, show them a better way, and close. This is a full-cycle, high-velocity role: real pipeline ownership, short cycles, and a product that demos incredibly well. You'll close deals in weeks, not quarters, and you'll help shape the playbook as we scale the team.

What you'll do:

  • Own the full sales cycle from first touch to close, across inbound and outbound
  • Run world-class discovery and demos, mapping Numeral's automation to each customer's operational, technical, and financial workflows
  • Manage a high-velocity pipeline with precision: efficient cycles, rigorous CRM hygiene, and clean handoffs to onboarding
  • Work closely with Sales Leadership, Product, and Solutions Engineering to sharpen messaging, improve win rates, and influence the roadmap
  • Help build the GTM machine: improve processes, playbooks, and outbound motions as we scale
  • Represent Numeral at industry events, conferences, and strategic customer conversations

What you'll bring:

  • 5+ years of sales experience with a consistent record of meeting or beating quota
  • 3+ years of experience as an Account Executive or in a comparable closing role
  • Experience selling to finance, accounting, or operations buyers (fintech, tax, ERP, or compliance SaaS is a plus)
  • Strong discovery and consultative selling instincts, paired with a bias for action
  • Operational excellence with high-volume pipelines and short cycles
  • Comfort with ambiguity: you prioritize ruthlessly, stay organized, and execute without waiting for direction
  • A hunter's drive and a founder's mindset: scrappy, creative, and obsessed with customer outcomes
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication
  • Coachable, resilient, and energized by hard problems

Nice to haves:

  • Background in sales tax, taxtech, fintech, or e-commerce tooling
  • Familiarity with MEDDICC or similar sales methodologies
  • Fluency with Salesforce, Gong, Nooks, and modern sales stack tools
  • You already use AI tools to work faster and smarter, and you have opinions about it

Location:

  • This role is remote or hybrid (3 days a week in our SF office)

What we offer:

  • Competitive salary and equity - you'll share directly in the company's success
  • Full medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Wellness perks like Headspace and the Peloton One App
  • 401(k) to help you build long-term financial security
  • Relocation assistance to NYC or SF (if needed)
  • Lunch and snacks when you're in the office
  • Regular team offsites and company events as we grow
  • A culture built on ownership - your work matters and people will see it!

Why work at Numeral

  • Culture: "Scrappy, gets stuff done, moves the ball forward" – built by former operators and engineers from Stripe, Notion, and Airbnb.
  • Work policy: Hybrid – HQ in San Francisco with remote options within the US (as noted on Y Combinator jobs).
  • Benefits: Competitive salary, meaningful equity (stock options), comprehensive health/wellness perks, top-of-the-line equipment.
  • Growth potential: One of the fastest-growing Y Combinator companies; employees get to shape a platform in a massive, underserved market.
  • Team: Small but rapidly growing (107 employees) with a flat structure and direct access to founders.
