About the Role

Numeric is building a modern platform for accounting and finance, focusing on live, rich, and trustworthy data. The Data Infrastructure team is responsible for the financial data plane, including a lakehouse that ingests, transforms, and serves data for accounting modules, reporting, and AI agents. This role involves end-to-end ownership of a slice of the architecture, with significant investment expected in this layer.

Responsibilities

  • Ingest data at scale from various API sources, file-based inboxes, and database replication, making new source additions cost-effective.
  • Implement data contracts and typed source data to enforce schemas at boundaries and make datasets discoverable.
  • Manage Data Lakehouse schema through a declare, codegen, and apply pipeline for consistent schema application across tenants.
  • Ensure data security by scoping queries, building ACLs, and maintaining customer trust.
  • Develop batch processing and event-driven accounting systems that decouple event processing from downstream failures and provide clear operational insights.
  • Build data correctness and observability features, including completeness checks, ingestion health monitoring, and links from ledger entries to raw events.
  • Optimize reporting scalability through query patterns and materializations to support drill-downs from high-level P&L to individual transactions.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of software engineering experience, with significant time on data-intensive systems.
  • Strong SQL skills and a working understanding of columnar stores, partitioning, and query performance.
  • Experience with a modern transformation/orchestration stack (e.g., SQLMesh, dbt, Dagster, Airflow).
  • Strong general-purpose programming skills (primarily TypeScript, with Python).
  • Treat auditability and 'fail early, fail explicitly' as design constraints.
  • Comfortable across the stack: TypeScript services, SQL (ClickHouse and Postgres), and transformation tooling (SQLMesh or dbt).
  • Ability to work closely with consumers of data (accounting module engineers, reporting team, agents) and shape their interfaces.
  • Desire to understand accounting data concepts (source data, completeness, close) and apply that knowledge to development.
