Today’s ERPs don’t store a company’s financial data. They store a diluted copy of it. Every contract, lease, and invoice gets flattened into a journal entry, and the context that made it meaningful is thrown away. That’s why accounting teams spend every month re-checking numbers, stitching together spreadsheets, and waiting on engineering, and why AI struggles to do real accounting work. Accounting doesn’t have a reporting problem. It has a data problem.\nEnter Numeric: the data platform finance teams run on. We started with the month-end close, where the data problem hurts most, and hundreds of finance teams now run their close on Numeric. That work led us to rebuild the system of record itself. In September 2026 we launched the Financial Data Platform (FDP), a platform built for the agent era. Instead of a journal entry, the real business object enters the system and the accounting is derived from it. Every number is traceable to its source, reporting works on any dimension, and accountants and AI agents finally have enough context to work together. While others bolted AI features onto the old data model, we built a new one.\nWe have a growing base of customers who love our product, including Anthropic, Plaid, Brex, Betterment, Wealthfront, and Asana. We’ve raised $89M from top-tier investors including IVP, Menlo Ventures, Founders Fund, and 8VC, along with founders and executives from Ramp, Segment, and other category-defining companies. We’re hybrid but in-office first, with teams in New York, San Francisco, and London, and we just shipped the product that will define our next decade. There’s never been a better time to join.\nAbout the Role\nWe’re hiring a Product Designer to join our Experience Team.\nThe 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.\nWe 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 quickly, use the product directly, reason through edge cases, and help turn ambiguous workflows into shippable product (including shipping some yourself!).\nThe best fit is someone who can work independently, seek feedback proactively, and move between rough prototypes, product reasoning, polished interaction design, and implementation details without needing a lot of ceremony. You should be someone who runs toward hard problems.\nHow We Work\nWe work in a way that is fast, direct, and unusually close to engineering.\nWe prototype early and often.\n\nWe use code, Claude Code, Linear, Figma, and the product itself as design artifacts.\n\nWe care about reusable patterns and design-system leverage, but we do not let process slow down product learning.\n\nDesigners are expected to be close to implementation and comfortable working with engineers in the details.\n\nWe do not have many formal design ceremonies. Designers need to be proactive about getting feedback and creating alignment.\n\nWe value sharp product judgment, low ego, high agency, and strong craft.\n\nWe care about speed and quality at the same time.\n\nWhat You’ll Do\nOwn product design for complex workflows in our financial operating system, from early exploration through implementation.\n\nWork closely with engineers and PMs to clarify ambiguous product problems and turn them into buildable interaction models.\n\nCreate prototypes, reference screens, interaction specs, and implementation notes as needed - using whatever artifact best moves the work forward.\n\nBuild or direct code-based prototypes where useful, including with tools like Claude Code.\n\nPartner with engineers during build to refine behavior, states, edge cases, density, polish, and product quality.\n\nHelp identify and resolve rough edges across the product before they harden into product debt.\n\nContribute to user story-led work, higher-fidelity refinements, and the reconciliation between prototype, production, and final product quality.\n\nHelp define reusable patterns for review surfaces, object inspectors, inbox tasks, tables, panels, workflows, and AI-enabled product interactions.\n\nWork with our design-system lead on component adoption and with engineering on prototype-to-production details.\n\nBring a strong point of view on craft, usability, and product clarity while staying pragmatic about what needs to ship now.\n\nWhat We’re Looking For\n5+ years of product design experience, ideally in a startup or high-ownership product environment.\n\nStrong visual, interaction, and product craft.\n\nExperience designing complex, technical, data-heavy, or workflow-heavy products.\n\nAbility to reason through edge cases, states, density, hierarchy, and product behavior.\n\nComfort working independently with limited ceremony and proactively pulling in feedback.\n\nExperience partnering closely with engineers and PMs through implementation.\n\nComfort prototyping quickly and using whatever tool is right for the problem.\n\nExperience or strong interest in code-based design workflows using tools like Claude Code, or similar.\n\nAbility to visually communicate a plan in low fidelity and create high-fidelity references when the work requires it.\n\nStrong written and verbal communication. You should be able to explain not just what you designed, but why it should work.\n\nLow ego and high agency. You can own a messy problem without needing it to be perfectly scoped.\n\nBonus Points\nExperience designing financial, accounting, data, developer, AI, or enterprise workflow products.\n\nExperience designing interfaces for tables, records, logs, approvals, review queues, automation, or data transformation.\n\nAbility to build lightweight prototypes in React / TypeScript or modify existing front-end code.\n\nExperience working with design systems as a living code/product system, not just a Figma library.\n\nExperience at an early-stage company where designers had to operate with high ownership and low process.\n\nYou Might Be a Fit If\nYou are a deeply curious person.\n\nYou like working directly with engineers.\n\nYou are comfortable when the first artifact is a prototype, screenshot, branch, Loom, or Linear issue.\n\nYou can take an ambiguous product area and make it more understandable.\n\nYou care about craft but do not need weeks of isolated design time to produce value.\n\nYou like dense, information-rich interfaces.\n\nYou want to help invent the product surface for modern accounting software.\n\nYou are have experience in AI, but are nuanced about where & how it’s applied.\n\nYou can move between “what is this system doing?” (being able to reason about the underlying data model) and “what should this exact panel look like?”\n\nYou Might Not Be a Fit If\nYou need a predefined, highly structured design process to do your best work.\n\nYou prefer to stay far away from implementation.\n\nYou want to work only in Figma.\n\nYou are uncomfortable with technical product concepts.\n\nYou mostly want to own brand or marketing design.\n\nYou prefer long research cycles before making.\n\nYou are not at all interested in accounting, finance, data, or enterprise workflows.","description_format":"text","description_chars":7496,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["AI Agents","Financial AI","Accounting & Tax Software"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-06-05T16:55:00Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":13,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.45,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":133,"expected_fill_days":53,"reasons":["conf:3","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-17T05:46:00Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":200000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/numeric-product-designer-experience","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/numeric-product-designer-experience.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-18T04:43:42Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":7093,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-19T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":6624},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=6624"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fnumeric-product-designer-experience"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fnumeric-product-designer-experience"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fnumeric-product-designer-experience"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/numeric-product-designer-experience\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fnumeric-product-designer-experience"}]}
