Job description

ABOUT NUMERAL

Numeral is transforming how taxes get done. Digital businesses are currently bogged down by a painful web of regulations across 47 states and 70+ countries. We’re eliminating this burden so teams can focus on their core mission.

We’re the largest and fastest-growing AI-native tax solution. Started in 2023, Numeral has raised over $57M from Benchmark, Mayfield, Y-Combinator, and many others. We now serve over 3,000 paying customers and have more than tripled our revenue every year in our history.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As the Senior Manager, Tax and Filings, you’ll lead Numeral’s filings operations, overseeing a distributed team responsible for tax filings. You’ll work closely with leadership, the broader Ops team, product, and engineering to ensure accuracy, process discipline, and operational excellence across a team of approx. 50 (and growing!), including offshore contractors.

This role is a blend of operational leader, process architect, and people manager.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

  • Lead and manage the filings team: Provide performance management, mentorship, and support to drive high-quality work and accountability.
  • Scale processes: Maximize automation to reduce repetitive tasks so teams can focus on highest leverage opportunities.
  • Drive operational excellence: Design, implement, and refine workflows and processes across filings, customer support, and client teams.
  • Ensure compliance and accuracy: Troubleshoot discrepancies in accounting or filings, and lead research projects on new regulatory rules.
  • Partner cross-functionally: Work closely with product and engineering to communicate business issues, escalate risks, and contribute to operational solutions.

WHAT YOU’LL BRING

  • 7+ years of demonstrated domain expertise in U.S. tax filings; international experience a plus.
  • Proven experience managing distributed teams with strong performance management and process implementation skills.
  • Experience building scalable processes in a startup, high-growth environment or consulting firm.
  • Experience in e-commerce, SaaS or Fintech is highly preferred.
  • Familiarity with regulatory reporting systems, tools, or platforms used in finance and filings.
  • Strong analytical and Excel/data skills.
  • Excellent communication skills.
  • Critical thinker with a proactive problem-solving mindset.
  • Proven ability to work cross functionally with product and engineering.
  • Startup mindset: Not scared of ambiguity and hungry for rapid growth
  • Intensity & Ownership: This is not a 9-5 — we’re scaling rapidly and have a massive opportunity ahead of us.
  • Customer Obsession: You deeply care about the user experience and solving their problems

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
  • 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.
