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://numeric.substack.com/p/accountings-data-problem 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. We have strong product market fit and a growing base of customers who love our product — including Anthropic, Plaid, Brex, Betterment, and many more. 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 believe that the best finance professionals have always been the ones that deeply understand how data flows through their company’s business, and have the technical acumen to build systems to harness that flow of data to both report on what was and forecast what will be. At Numeric, our mission is to build world class tools for that vision of finance and accounting. Numeric’s internal finance engineer will shape processes across the finance lifecycle including procure-to-pay, quote-to-cash, month-end close and reporting, and forecasting & budgeting. Beyond internal finances, this role will be expected to provide feedback on the tools and systems that Numeric is building to transform the accounting space. You will partner closely with our founders and leaders across the company to not only operate the business, but provide feedback to build Numeric’s products. This role is ideal for someone with a corporate accounting or FP&A background and/or experience building 0-to-1 within a finance team at an early-stage startup. You should want to manage the system and improve it to meet the evolving demands of our business. This is a high-visibility, high-ownership role with direct impact on the trajectory of the company. This is a 100% in-person role based in our San Francisco or New York City office. ## WHAT YOU’LL DO - Build a world class finance function – through both Numeric’s products, and by building internal tools, our goal is to raise the ceiling of what “good” means for the office of the CFO - Operate day-to-day – whether procure-to-pay, quote-to-cash, or month end close, we need to model what a best-in-class finance org looks like for our customers. - Clarify decision making – Through reporting, budgeting, and scenario planning, your job is to communicate performance, set constraints for leaders, and have a perspective on how to achieve our goals. - Partner with executive stakeholders – Work with Numeric’s leaders across Engineering, Product and go-to-market to provide insight on department level P&L performance. ## WHAT YOU BRING - Experience & Drive – 3-8 years in corporate accounting, FP&A, or finance at an early-stage startup with a hunger to take on high-impact work. - Accounting expertise – You get energy from the craft of accounting, and a willingness to design finance and accounting processes from first principles. - Analytical Acumen – Strong data analysis, and Excel skills, with experience interpreting and working with financial data. SQL skills are a plus. Comfort building tools with LLMs is a must. - Communication – Ability to distill operational complexity into clear insights with actionable takeaways for all company stakeholders. - Problem-Solving – A structured thinker who can break down ambiguous challenges, find practical solutions, and drive execution. WHY JOIN NUMERIC? - Hands-on impact – Work directly with leadership on high-priority financial initiatives. - Career growth – Gain experience across FP&A, operations, and strategic finance, with exposure to executive decision-making. - Top-tier customers and investors – Be part of a company trusted by leading finance teams and backed by world-class investors. - Fast-moving, high-impact environment – Operate with autonomy, iterate quickly, and help scale financial operations from the ground up. - Competitive compensation – Salary, equity, health coverage, retirement plans, and unlimited PTO. ## 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. ## Sources 1.
