The Finance Engineer Cup

We're looking for the best builders in finance.

The Finance Engineer Cup is Numeric's first competition for accountants & finance people who are ready to put their AI skills to the test and win $5,000.

Work through a short, building scenario for a fictional company. We give the details, you bring the skills. Then, compete in a live finale on June 25th.

Participate in the Cup

Builders, it's time to battle

You build Claude skills weekly. You're the go-to person at your company for new automation. You're inching closer to the zero day close every month.

The finance engineer cup was built for you. Compete to win $5,000 (and bragging rights).

What's A finance engineer?

Finance engineers own data pipelines, ship automations, and treat the general ledger as a system to architect rather than a process to execute. 



If you’ve ever built a matching rule from scratch, stood up a custom integration, or scripted your way out of a month-end bottleneck, then the Finance Engineer Cup is built for you.
