Job description

About NumeralHQ

Numeral is building the automation backbone for internet commerce — starting with the painful world of sales tax compliance. We handle everything from registration to remittance, delivering a white-glove service so e-commerce businesses can stay laser-focused on what they do best: growing their products, customers, and teams.

We’re one of the fastest-growing companies from Y Combinator’s W23 batch, backed by top-tier investors including Benchmark Capital. Our team has deep roots from the early days at Stripe, Airbnb, Notion, and other breakout companies — and now we’re bringing that same level of craft, speed, and ambition to a space that’s long overdue for reinvention.

Numeral is small but mighty. Growth is already borderline unmanageable — which means every hire we make now will directly shape the trajectory of the company. If you’re excited about joining as an early team member and want the kind of ownership that defines careers, we want to meet you.

Mission:

Running an online business today means wearing a thousand hats — most of them not the reason founders started their company. Our mission is to eliminate the administrative and accounting burdens that distract businesses from doing what they love.

We’ve already helped hundreds of merchants avoid the headache of building giant finance teams just to manage tax compliance. Tomorrow, we’re scaling that impact even further: building the automation layer that lets internet businesses stay nimble, compliant, and future-proof.

About the role:

• We are looking for a strategic, hands-on VP of Finance to join Numeral as a foundational leader. Reporting directly to the CEO, you will own the full financial strategy and execution across the company.

• This is a rare opportunity to shape the financial backbone of a fast-scaling startup, lead future fundraising efforts, and partner closely with leadership to drive the business forward.

Responsibilities:

• Lead Numeral's financial strategy, including FP&A, budgeting, forecasting, and capital allocation.

• Develop and refine financial models and systems that ensure smart, scalable growth.

• Oversee international entity setup and ensure global financial compliance.

• Implement and manage outsourced finance functions (fractional accounting/controller, AP/AR) and build scalable internal processes.

• Partner cross-functionally with Sales, Product, BizOps, and Leadership to guide financial decision-making.

• Lead investor relations and fundraising efforts, working closely with the CEO and board.

Qualifications:

• 10+ years of finance experience with 3+ years in a finance leadership role at an early-stage B2B SaaS startup (Series A or similar).

• Strong experience in FP&A, strategic finance, and financial modeling (beyond pure accounting).

• Background in banking, private equity, or venture-backed finance environments.

• Demonstrated success in scaling 0-1 systems and managing ambiguity.

• Experience with international finance and entity management.

• Effective cross-functional collaborator, able to influence without formal authority.

Bonus Points For:

• Familiarity with sales tax compliance, SaaS metrics, RevOps, and revenue recognition.

• Experience with Salesforce, Looker, Stripe, and similar SaaS finance tools.

Why Join Us?

• Be a core builder in an ambitious, globally minded startup.

• Learn hands-on how to scale international compliance systems.

• Work across functions and with leadership early in your career.

• Make a visible impact immediately through enablement and operational design.

• Enjoy a flexible, remote-first culture with strong mentorship and ownership opportunities.
