Years (going on decades) ago, I would have said the same thing about myself - I'm just not that "good with" numbers, but I'm good with coding and problem solving. And I actually did just fine - but one day I came across an interesting problem on Usenet about drawing a block arrow that could orient itself in any direction. Out of curiosity, I started trying to implement it and I realized I needed to recall the algebra that I remembered just enough of to pass the test when I was an undergraduate. Suddenly, in context, it became interesting, and I started re-learning all of the "number stuff" that I dreaded when I was younger. Not only did it start to make more and more sense, but I found myself becoming a better programmer incidentally: solving these simple, ready-made problems (that happened to involve manipulating numbers) sharpened my ability to concentrate and focus on bigger, fuzzier problems. I don't think anybody - or maybe only very few - people are "naturally" numerically inclined; it's something you have to work at, but I also think it's something that anybody can master if they really put their mind to it.
