Full Job Description

WHY NUMERIC? Every business relies on accounting. Yet most software in the space was built in the early 2000s: clunky, slow, and poorly suited to the complexity finance teams deal with today. Accountants are facing a growing data problem https://numeric.substack.com/p/accountings-data-problem caused by more systems, more transactions, more reporting requirements, and more fragmented workflows. The problems are real, hard, and increasingly urgent. They are also solvable. Numeric is building the modern platform for accounting and finance. We’re building toward live, rich, trustworthy financial data that companies can use to make decisions and move faster. We tackle foundational challenges across data ingest, transformation, matching, projection, reporting, and workflow. By combining data infrastructure, automation, and careful product design, we help accounting teams move away from manual work and toward a continuous view of a company’s financial activity. We have strong product-market fit and a growing base of customers who love our product, including Anthropic, Brex, OpenAI, Plaid, Wealthfront, and hundreds more. We’re a Series B company backed by top-tier investors including IVP, Menlo Ventures, Founders Fund, and 8VC, along with founders and executives from Ramp, Segment, and other category-defining companies. ABOUT THE ROLE We’re hiring a Product Designer to join our Experience Team. The Experience team currently includes three product designers and one front-end engineer. The team owns the quality, coherence, and UI/UX differentiation of Numeric’s product surface area. We work across product design, design systems, code-based prototyping, and front-end implementation to make sure the product feels clear, dense, elegant, and trustworthy. We are building complex, data-heavy, highly technical product surfaces. The work often starts before every requirement is clear and continues through implementation. You’ll partner closely with engineers and PMs, prototype quickl
