Founding Business Operations and Strategy

Numeric

About 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 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

Numeric has reach an inflection point: customer demand is accelerating, our product surface is expanding, and the complexity of our business is growing quickly. For us to build a foundation for growth for many years to come, we need sharp, experienced operators who thrive in ambiguity, love solving hard problems and aren't afraid to roll up their sleeves.

This role is ideal for someone with a consulting background and/or experience building 0-to-1 at an early-stage startup. You should want to not only analyze and understand, but dig into the sometimes unglamorous work of what's needed across go-to-market, product & engineering, and operations. Some of the projects you might own in your first several months might be:
  • Talent and hiring
  • Product analytics and success metrics
  • Sales strategy and enablement
  • Growth marketing
You will partner closely with our founders and leaders across the company. For you to be successful you will need to drive impact by building trust with stakeholders, quickly developing a point of view, and operating with a bias to action.

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
  • Operate day-to-day - to understand how best to build a process, you'll need to learn by doing. By executing the the tasks that need to get done today, you can learn what foundation to build for tomorrow.
  • Build mission critical business processes - whether it's recruiting, product analytics, or deal desk, own 0-to-1 execution of your parts of the business. You treat each like a product - constantly testing, iterating, optimizing, and raising the bar.
  • Clarify decision making - analyzing data, identifying trends, instrumenting dashboards and reporting out to key stakeholders.
  • Partner with executive stakeholders - Work with Numeric's leaders across Engineering, Product and go-to-market to connect the dots and unblock cross-functional dependencies.
What You Bring
  • Experience & Drive - 4-8 years in finance, investment banking, consulting, or a high-growth startup, with a hunger to take on high-impact work.
  • Analytical Acumen - Strong data analysis, and Excel skills, with experience interpreting and working with financial data. SQL skills are a plus.
  • 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.
  • Strong people skills - You get energy from building relationships with people - be they candidates or internal stakeholders - and pride yourself on quickly earning trust.
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.
