Founding Product Marketing Manager

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 data volumes and systems complexity grow — 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.

Our product is rapidly improving — so much so that our marketing and sales teams can barely keep up! We’re bringing onboard a founding product marketing manager to help communicate improvements to our product to our customers / prospects and surface market insights across our team.

As the sole product marketer at Numeric, you’ll shape the function and set the bar high for years to come. In this role, you’d:

• Own major product launches, coordinating across the marketing team for the right campaigns, content, and collateral necessary to bring new products to market.

• Build out ongoing enablement and sales collateral for our sales team on product and market developments, influencing our win rate across deals.

• Conduct deep research into customer pain points and continuously refine our product positioning used across the entirety of our marketing team.

• Communicate with our existing customers on updates to the product and bidirectionally provide feedback across sales and product to refine our product strategy and sales motion.

If successful, you’ll have substantially contributed to Numeric’s growth and have laid the groundwork for future PMMs to join and expand the function.

You’ve worked in an early stage start-up environment and have either worked in product, growth, or marketing roles with 3+ years of total work experience.

We’ve found at Numeric that great fits often have a variety of backgrounds, so if you read the below and are confident this is still you, apply.

• You’re a self-starter. You’re drawn to the idea of being the first in the role and building out the playbook. You solicit inputs from the across the team — but can operate with considerable autonomy, making the early-stage environment a strong fit.

• You’re creative. Before jumping to exactly how similar problems have been solved in the past, you think from first-principles. In every role you’ve joined, you’ve brought unorthodox ideas to the table. Brainstorming comes naturally to you.

• You’re an excellent communicator. Whether in writing or in conversation, you’re known for communicating effectively. You have a knack for compelling copy and appreciate a well timed metaphor or turn of phrase to make challenging concepts digestible.

• You’re a pro at cross-functional work. Product, sales, other marketing functions — you love learning about it all and thrive when you’ve got eyes across core projects in the company. In prior roles, you’ve often gravitated to work across teams and naturally build strong relationships company-wide.

• You work quickly, but maintain a high standard of quality. Speed is important. And, for many of the items you’ll work on, quality is critical. You’ve honed the skillset of determining the specific quality bar for each project you’re working on and have an instinct for when to move fast and when to slow down to make the most progress.

We work in person out of our offices in San Francisco and New York (in office by default but with flexibility to manage your schedule as you see fit).

We strongly believe we will only be successful if everyone on the team is anchored in the following set of core principles:

• Brick by Brick: To win, our team needs to show up and execute in each domain every day.

• Love the Game: We focus on the craft and a deep sense of giving a f*ck. We’re building a company full of people who are equally engaged and motivated.

• SALY: We refuse to accept “Same As Last Year.” For too long, accounting and finance systems have reflected outdated processes instead of reimagining what’s possible. We’re driven by a first-principles approach to building better solutions.

• Own the Outcome: We own our results. We typically hire builders and give them large mandates with high-trust. Engineers are responsible not just for code, but for ensuring the product is solving the end problems of the users.

• Earn the right: We’re impatient to deliver results. We relentlessly iterate, measure, and improve. Every day is an opportunity to beat our prior best, raising the bar for the value we deliver to customers. E Pluribus Unum-eric.
