What You'll Do We’re looking for a strategic and technically strong engineering leader to drive innovation and scale for one of Avalara's flagship SaaS products—a $50M revenue-generating line with double‑digit growth and a customer base in the hundreds of thousands. This is more than just a leadership role. It’s a chance to put your fingerprint on one of the top AI‑enabled platforms in the industry, steering both its near‑term transformation and long‑term innovation strategy.

What Your Responsibilities Will Be
Lead and inspire engineering teams through a multi‑year transformation, including replatforming legacy components and building modern, scalable infrastructure.
Drive innovation by weaving AI into the product’s core—working hand‑in‑hand with PMs and data scientists to deliver customer‑facing, AI‑powered experiences.
Own the product’s technical roadmap, ensuring it aligns with business objectives, customer demands, and long‑term scalability goals.
Foster a culture of excellence, accountability, and forward‑thinking engineering.
Act as a strategic advisor to executive leadership on AI integration, technical investment, and product growth strategy.
What You’ll Need To Be Successful
Proven success managing engineering organizations behind $50M+ product lines or similarly scaled SaaS platforms.
A bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Computer Science is required.
A solid engineering foundation—capable of understanding, building, and scaling complex systems.
Expertise in platform modernization (replatforming, scalability, microservices, etc.) coupled with a strong understanding of AI‑driven product development.
A track record of building and mentoring high‑performing teams, with a leadership style that’s both empowering and execution‑focused.
Clear, strategic communication—comfortable engaging across technical, product, and business teams.
This Role Is For You If…
You're an engineering leader ready to scale something meaningful, not just maintain the status quo.
You see AI as a tool for product differentiation—not just a buzzword—and know how to apply it with intent.
You thrive in high‑impact environments where visibility is high and the opportunity to influence is even higher.
Avalara is an AI‑first Company AI is embedded in our workflows, decision‑making, and products. Success here requires embracing AI as an essential capability.

You’ll apply AI every day to business challenges - improving efficiency, contributing solutions, and driving results for your team, our company, and our customers.
You’ll grow with AI by staying curious about new trends and best practices, and by sharing what you learn so others can benefit too.
How We’ll Take Care Of You Total Rewards
In addition to a great compensation package, paid time off, and paid parental leave, many Avalara employees are eligible for bonuses.

Inclusive culture and diversity
Avalara strongly supports diversity, equity, and inclusion, and is committed to integrating them into our business practices and our organizational culture. We also have a total of 8 employee‑run resource groups, each with senior leadership and exec sponsorship.
