What This Person Will Do 

  • Own the tax accuracy, quality, and performance of AI-powered Sales & Use Tax products.

  • Research and interpret complex tax issues, including taxability, exemptions, sourcing, nexus, marketplace rules, and industry-specific requirements.  
  • Define testing strategies, evaluation frameworks, and quality standards to ensure accurate and consistent product outcomes.  
  • Analyze product outputs, identify root causes of failures, and prioritize improvements based on customer impact, tax risk, and business value.  
  • Lead cross-functional initiatives and help shape the tax product roadmap. 
  • Collaborate with customer-facing teams to convert field feedback and customer issues into scalable product enhancements.  
  • Communicate priorities, requirements, risks, and outcomes effectively across tax, product, engineering, and leadership teams. 

 

Experience Profile 

Required  

  • 6-10 years of relevant experience in indirect tax, with a focus on sales and use tax across multiple states.

  • Experience evaluating, testing, or improving systems, processes, or technology used to support tax determination, compliance, or tax operations.

  • Curious and adaptable, with a genuine interest in learning new technologies, industries, and ways of working. 
  • Hands-on and pragmatic: willing to dig into data, research tax issues, test the product, and give direct feedback. 
  • Precise about correctness: can articulate not just that an output is wrong, but why, with authority and a repeatable rule.

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.
