Why Numeric

Numeric is the modern data platform for accounting and finance. We weave together data, workflows, and AI to automate and elevate accounting. Customers depend on us as the operating platform for their accounting, as well as the reporting, analytics, and observability layer for their financial data.

Why you might join us:

• Strong product market fit: we tripled our recurring revenue in 2024 and we're accelerating. Companies like OpenAI, Braze, Figma, Anthropic customers are just a few of our wide audience which ranges from public companies to smaller series A and series B startups.

• Excellence: we are building a world-class engineering team and value excellent product engineering as the core of our strategy and execution. You will be responsible for creating and maintaining an environment where top ICs want to work.

• Massive opportunity & leverage: accounting is 20 years out of date, and every company from series A to enterprise is duct-taping their financial data together. Accountants face a growing, unsolved data problem as a consequence of complexity, data, and system fragmentation, and they do not have the tools to address it. These problems are important and difficult, yet solvable.

• Strong support: we've raised over $35 million from investors including Menlo Ventures, IVP, Founders Fund, and 8VC as well as founders from Ramp, Segment, and more.

• Customer partnership: you will meet with users in your first weeks on the job. Engineers spend time directly with our users in order to build deep understanding and context on our audience and their problems.

• Agency: we believe the best products are built when great engineers have the support of a strong team, the agency to exercise their creativity, and deep problems to tackle. Engineers do great work when they're having fun with teammates that energize and inspire them and have the support of conscientious managers who are always looking to expand the pie.
