This role supports our Consumer-Packaged Goods (CPG) clients in sectors such as food, beverage, and manufacturing—many of whom sell high volumes of products through retail outlets.

The ideal candidate will have 7+ years of experience in sales and use tax compliance, with a strong background in multi-state tax requirements. Expertise in Shopify, Avalara, and TaxJar is essential, with Shopify serving as the primary ecommerce platform used for sales tax calculations.

  • Manage state tax registrations, remittances, and back filings to ensure compliance.
  • Assist with clean-up of existing sales tax issues and ongoing compliance monitoring.
  • Work closely with ecommerce platforms and tax automation tools (Shopify, Avalara, TaxJar) to manage tax calculations and reporting.
  • Support collaboration across teams to ensure accurate tax application and filings.

Position Requirements: 

  • Minimum 7 years of sales and use tax experience, ideally within the CPG, food & beverage, or manufacturing sectors.
  • Strong understanding of multi-state sales tax laws, including nexus rules that vary by product and location (zip code level).
  • Proficiency with Shopify, and tax automation platforms Avalara and TaxJar
  • Background in tax compliance, with a focus on back filings and registration processes.
  • Industry-agnostic experience welcomed but preference for CPG background.
  • Bachelor’s degree in accounting, Economics, or related field preferred; CPA not required.
  • Ability to work independently in a fully remote role with minimal supervision.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
