À propos
Stand up the tax function from foundation. You're our first dedicated tax hire, working from a clean slate with outside advisors. Set the operating model, the positions, the calendar, the tooling. Own the multi-state nexus picture — payroll, customer, and economic nexus across our remote workforce and customer footprint. Build the registration and compliance roadmap and execute it. Define and defend US federal tax positions — R&D credit (§41), §174, capitalized software, equity comp deductions, pre-IPO restructuring. Build our international tax foundation. We're early in global expansion and you'll own the design from the ground up — transfer pricing model and intercompany agreements, IP location and migration, GILTI/FDII, entity structure, permanent establishment risk. Build the sales and use tax operating model — taxability, nexus monitoring, registrations, returns, exemption certificates. Strong opinions on the right tooling. Quarterback external tax advisors — direct, scope, and decide what stays in-house. Today: Big 4 federal compliance. You'll scope SALT, international, and transfer pricing engagements as needed. Partner with the Director, Technical Accounting & FR on equity comp (ASC 718 / IRC 409A), business combinations (ASC 805 / §338, PPAs), capitalized software, and complex financing instruments. When the time comes, build our first ASC 740 provision from scratch — workpapers, footnotes, disclosures, tie-outs — with the rigor an external audit and S-1 require. We're not yet running a provision; you'll stand it up as audit prep requires it. Lay the foundation for public-company tax disclosure and SOX readiness — workflows, controls, and calendars to support 10-K / 10-Q tax footnotes. Use AI extensively — research, memo drafting, nexus analysis, transfer pricing benchmarking, peer disclosure scraping, workflow automation — and build your own tooling where it helps. Build the team as we scale. Requirements:
Active CPA, JD with tax LLM, or MST. Big 4 or national firm tax foundation. 8+ years of progressive corporate tax experience. Deep fluency in US federal and multi-state, plus hands-on international tax — transfer pricing, IP structuring, GILTI/FDII, intercompany. Hands-on technical range across what'll define our audit and S-1 — federal positions including R&D credit and §174, multi-state SALT, indirect tax, equity-comp tax, ASC 740. Experience preparing or rebuilding tax provisions, footnotes, and disclosures from scratch — not just reviewing them. Experience managing external auditors and tax consultants — scope, direct, push back. Comfort vibe-coding scripts and small automations (Python, SQL, or equivalent) — for nexus monitoring, provision tie-outs, exposure modeling, pulling structured data from messy sources. A builder's instinct — comfort with ambiguity, no waiting for playbooks, strong bias to ship. AI-native working style — you use LLMs daily and can talk concretely about what they do well and where they fall short for tax. Strong written and verbal communication — you can translate tax for non-tax stakeholders without losing precision. High integrity, high ownership, low ego. Benefits:
Medical, dental, vision benefits Annual wellness stipend Mental health support Life, STD, LTD Income Insurance Plans Unlimited PTO Generous paid parental leave Flexible schedule 12 Paid US company holidays Quarterly personal productivity stipend One-time stipend for home office upgrades 401(k) plan with company match Tax Savings Programs Learning / Education stipend Participation in talks and conferences Employee Resource Groups AI enablement workshops / sessions
