## Job description

## Why Numeric

Every business relies on accounting.

Yet most software in the space was built in the early 2000s — clunky, slow, and far behind the curve on AI. Today, accountants are facing a growing, unsolved data problem https://www.linkedin.com/safety/go/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnumeric%2Esubstack%2Ecom%2Fp%2Faccountings-data-problem&urlhash=a6R_&mt=UpOmRo1zyDJ90E8TolRm7foc9pstCm9w-PvWqQsODD-IRJ3-cHcNiTEWFmbIfr5HanjRWTDxSOzygDbdic4C5RQns6Y&isSdui=true as a consequence of complexity, data, and system fragmentation — and they lack the tools to solve it.

The problems are real, hard, and increasingly urgent. But they’re solvable. Enter Numeric —the modern financial data platform for accounting and finance. Weaving together data, workflows, and AI-first solutions, we’re empowering accounting teams to achieve verifiable, detailed financial data faster and make business decisions with greater confidence. Accounting does not need more duct tape. We've rethought the field — its primitives, assumptions, and practices — while staying grounded by working closely with our customers.

We have strong product market fit and a growing base of customers who love our product — including Anthropic, Notion, Brex, OpenAI, Cursor, Plaid, Wealthfront, Mercury, Figma, and Asana. We’re backed by top-tier investors including Menlo Ventures, IVP, Founders Fund, and 8VC, along with founders and executives from Ramp, Segment, and other category-defining companies.

## The Role

We're hiring our first dedicated Engineering Manager to help lead our engineering teams in SF. You'll manage and grow a team of engineers while staying close enough to the code and the system design to earn the trust of the people you lead. We're not looking for someone who manages from a distance — we're looking for someone who's done the work, still wants to be in the details when it matters, and gets energy from making other engineers better.

## What you might work on

- Data platform: Lead the team building the ingestion, transformation, and lineage infrastructure that gives accountants traceable, source-connected access to their financial data at any level of detail.
- Reporting engine: Own delivery of the experience for flexibly defining, composing, and drilling into structured financial reports, from high-level projections down to individual transactions.
- Accounting automation: Guide the team developing the core engine that brings structure to messy financial data, automating large swaths of manual work and turning accountants into engineers.
- Workflow, AI, and user experience: Lead a team building complex, cyclical accounting workflows with dependency management, automation, and AI-native experiences — all wrapped in a product we take pride in making delightful to use.

You might be a fit if…

- You've managed engineers before and you genuinely enjoy it. You take pride in developing people, building trust on teams, and making hard calls on people and priorities.
- You still want to be technical. You can go deep on system design, review code and architecture decisions, and earn credibility with your team by being a good collaborator.
- You find learning a new, complex domain to be an exciting challenge
- You combine a commitment to high quality work with a desire to win and tackle ambitious goals
- You want to help build the management function here: process, rituals, and bar-setting. You can balance scaling with pragmatism about the right amount of process for the stage of growth.
- You care about good abstractions and about building good product.

## What you need

- 6+ years of experience building software, including meaningful time as a hands-on engineer
- 2+ years directly managing engineers, with real ownership of hiring, performance, and team output
- High motivation and agency

Bonus points for…

- Experience managing teams in complex, technical domains
- Fintech or accounting-adjacent/fintech experience
- Experience founding a business, building products from scratch, or being an early engineering hire who grew into management
- A track record in hiring

This role is in-person in San Francisco.

We believe the best company is the one with the best ICs, and we've built a culture to maximize great work — as an EM here, your job is to protect and amplify that, not manage around it. We believe great product & engineering come from a desire to win, a deep care for the craft, and a pragmatism in shipping for overall impact.

We strongly believe we will only be successful if everyone on the team — managers included — is anchored in our core principles:

- Own the Outcome: We own our results. We typically hire builders and give them large mandates with high trust. As a manager, you're responsible not just for your team's code, but for ensuring your team is solving the end problems of the users.
- Brick by Brick: To win, our team needs to show up and execute in each domain every day.
- Love the Game: We focus on the craft and a deep sense of giving a f*ck. We're building a company full of people who are equally engaged and motivated — that starts with how you lead.
- Earn the Right: Our ability to rethink how things are done depends on the trust and reputation we build by shipping quality products and improving the lives of our users.
- SALY: We refuse to accept "Same As Last Year." We bring fresh eyes to a stagnated and underserved domain, including in how we build and run engineering teams.

## About Numeric

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Numeric is an AI-powered close automation platform that unifies close management, reporting, and cash management for complex accounting teams.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Seed, Series A, Series B – total funding $92.5M)
- **Headquarters**: San Francisco, California, United States
- **Founded**: 2021 (inferred from Seed round in May 2021)
- **Founders**: Parker Gilbert (Co-Founder & CEO) and Anthony Alvernaz (Co-Founder)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Accounting & Finance Software (AI-native record-to-report)
- **Target customers**: B2B, primarily enterprise accounting and finance teams at private and public companies
- **Mission**: “Empower every business to have perfect financial clarity.”

## Products & Services
- **Numeric Platform**: AI-native record-to-report platform that unifies close management, reporting, and cash management.
- **Close Management**: Automate reconciliations, close checklists, journal entry creation, transaction monitoring, and flux analysis with AI-driven auto-drafting.
- **Cash Management**: Centralize bank data, automate cash matching (90%+ automation), and gain real-time cash visibility.
- **Analytics Suite**: Build custom reports, run flux analysis, and collaborate on management reporting without deep ERP expertise.
- **MCP Connector**: Leverage a Model Context Protocol connector to build custom agents and automate multi-step workflows.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Total funding of $92.5M (latest Series B of $51M in November 2025)
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Investor names not publicly listed in available sources; backed by multiple venture capital firms across Seed, Series A, and Series B rounds.
- **Growth Signals**: 92 employees (+90.3% YoY headcount growth); operates in 5 countries (US, UK, Germany, India, Canada); used by hundreds of private and public companies; active job postings up 160% year-over-year.

## Competitive Advantages
- **AI-native platform**: Built from the ground up for AI, not retrofitted – enables real-time accounting, auto-drafted flux explanations, and custom AI agents.
- **End-to-end coverage**: Unifies close management, cash management, and analytics in one platform, replacing brittle Excel-based workflows.
- **Data integration**: Pulls every transaction line from ERPs, integrates bank feeds, and supports document/CSV uploads for granular visibility.
- **In-person culture**: 5 days a week in-office fosters tight collaboration and rapid iteration, a differentiator in a remote-first world.

## Strategic Focus
- Expand product roadmap deeper into critical accounting workflows beyond close management (e.g., real-time accounting, AI-driven compliance).
- Continue building a “first, real-time financial data platform” to lift accountants’ roles into higher-value strategic work.
- Scale sales and go-to-market efforts across the US, UK, and Europe (active hiring for Account Executives, Sales Engineers, and Customer Success).

## Why Work Here
- **Engineering culture**: Product engineers own problems end-to-end, work directly with internal accountants and users, and are expected to have deep systems thinking and fast iteration. High autonomy and high trust.
- **Work environment**: In-person 5 days a week in San Francisco, New York, or London. The company believes “work moves faster (and is far more fun!) when you’re all in the same room.”
- **Values**: “Earn the Right”, “Own the Outcome”, “Love the Game”, “SALY” (refuse to accept “Same As Last Year”). Emphasis on craftsmanship, impact, and execution.
- **Perks & culture**: Annual company offsites, “passport” stamps for milestones (serious and silly), Eric Num robot mascot with weekly emoji drops, and a focus on having fun while solving hard problems.
- **Growth trajectory**: 90%+ headcount growth YoY, rapidly expanding product scope, and strong funding – ideal for someone seeking high-impact, high-visibility roles.
