At Numeral, we're building the future of tax by bringing together AI agents, human expertise, and global compliance.
We’re the largest and fastest-growing AI-native tax solution. Today, we serve more than 3,500 global businesses, including companies like Supabase, Eight Sleep, and Graza. We’ve grown quickly across our core e-commerce and software segments, more than tripled our revenue every year, and expanded into new industries, including manufacturing, distribution, and wholesale.
Numeral has raised over $157M from Insight Partners, Salesforce Ventures, Benchmark, Mayfield, Y Combinator, and many others.

### **About the role:**

We’re looking for a foundational Full-Stack Engineer who thrives in ambiguity, enjoys building complex distributed systems, and wants to define foundational architecture in a fast-growing early-stage startup. You’ll lead the design and implementation of APIs, services, and infrastructure that underpin our platform. You’ll also help drive engineering strategy, product execution, and cultural foundations alongside leadership.

### **What you’ll do:**

- Design and build scalable, secure backend services and APIs from scratch.

- Make architectural decisions that optimize for speed, data integrity, and long-term maintainability.

- Collaborate closely with product, design, and data teams to develop performant systems that power key customer workflows.

- Own infrastructure, observability, and performance for the services you build.

- Help shape engineering best practices, code quality, and our overall backend culture.

### **What you'll bring:**

- 7+ years of experience building backend systems in high-growth environments.

- Fluency with backend technologies like Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, and cloud services (AWS preferred).

- Experience designing robust APIs and distributed systems at scale.

- Strong product sensibility—able to balance performance, flexibility, and speed.

- Startup mindset: Not scared of ambiguity and hungry for rapid growth

- Intensity & Ownership: This is not a 9-5 — we’re scaling rapidly and have a massive opportunity ahead of us.

- Customer Obsession: You deeply care about the user experience and solving their problems

### **Nice to haves:**

- Experience in payments, tax, accounting, or regulatory tech.

- Infrastructure or platform engineering background (e.g., CI/CD, observability).

- Experience scaling monolith-to-service architectures or event-driven systems.

- Familiarity with GraphQL, Kafka, Terraform, or container orchestration tools.

### **Location:**

- This role is hybrid (3 days a week in our SF or NYC office)

### **What we offer:**

- Competitive salary and equity - you'll share directly in the company's success

- Full medical, dental, and vision coverage

- Wellness perks like Headspace and the Peloton One App

- 401(k) to help you build long-term financial security

- Relocation assistance to NYC or SF (if needed)

- A culture built on ownership - your work matters and people will see it!
