Founding Recruiter

About Numeric

Numeric is building the modern accounting & finance platform. Companies today depend on Numeric's workflow and data platform to collaborate, monitor and analyze data, and share insights about their financials.
We believe an organization with up-to-date, accurate, rich financial data is empowered to move faster and smarter. Unfortunately, the tools and systems have not been keeping up. The complexity of work and granularity of data has ballooned and old, slow software and simplistic tools only facilitate the manual work; they do little to solve the fundamental challenges of accounting and finance.
Numeric is backed by Founders Fund, Menlo Ventures, 8VC, Long Journey Ventures, and others as well as founders from Ramp, Segment, and more.

Promote Employer Brand: Actively work on strengthening our employer brand in the market. Utilize innovative methods to showcase our culture, benefits, and unique opportunities at industry events, social media, and other relevant platforms.

What you'll bring

Proven Recruitment Expertise: You have at least 3 years of experience in recruitment, with a proven track record recruiting technical talent in a startup or tech-focused environment.
Adaptability and Speed: Your ability to adapt to evolving business needs and a high-speed work environment will be crucial. You bring a proactive, agile approach to recruitment.
Strong Communication Skills: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with an emphasis on thoughtful, clear, and persuasive messaging.
Leadership Qualities: As a founding member of the recruitment team, you will lead by example, demonstrating high levels of integrity, initiative, and foresight.

What we care about

We are an early startup, and our culture and values will continue to be defined by the people who join us on this journey. So expect our values to change over time as we incorporate new ideas and ensure they reflect the diversity of voices that make up Velocity.
Today, there are a few things that we double down on that we believe will lead to outsized early success
Trust & Autonomy — we are a small team with big ambitions. Speed is our advantage and we maximize it by equipping everyone with the knowledge, tools, and support to make important decisions and take ownership of their work. As a result, we get a lot more done than people expect us to.
Continuous Improvement — we care deeply about shortening the time to value for what we build and move quickly to release product and features. How we hire reflects this value as well. A little bit of slope makes up for a lot of y-intercept.
Written Communication - we emphasize strong documentation and a scientific approach to evaluating and addressing problems. We believe a culture of writing promotes systematic thinking, creates shared institutional knowledge, and drives alignment of plans & priorities.
Curiosity — finance and accounting systems need a first-principled rethink. The ways in which we differentiate our product, company, and culture will be defined by our ability to challenge conventions and consistently embody a learning mindset. All team members engage with our customers and take an active role in identifying opportunities to define solutions & improve our product.
