  • Partner cross-functionally: Work closely with product and engineering to communicate business issues, escalate risks, and contribute to operational solutions.

What you’ll bring:

  • 7+ years of demonstrated domain expertise in U.S. tax filings; international experience a plus.

  • Proven experience managing distributed teams with strong performance management and process implementation skills.

  • Experience building scalable processes in a startup, high-growth environment or consulting firm.

  • Experience in e-commerce, SaaS or Fintech is highly preferred.

  • Familiarity with regulatory reporting systems, tools, or platforms used in finance and filings.

  • Strong analytical and Excel/data skills.

  • Excellent communication skills.

  • Critical thinker with a proactive problem-solving mindset.

  • Proven ability to work cross functionally with product and engineering.

  • Startup mindset: Not scared of ambiguity and hungry for rapid growth
