Indirect tax Research & Content (Sales Tax)

Harvey John

About the Company

A high-growth, venture-backed technology business is building next-generation AI infrastructure for global tax and trade compliance. The platform combines advanced machine learning, large-scale legal interpretation, and real-time transaction processing to automate complex international indirect tax obligations across multiple jurisdictions. The business operates globally, works with some of the fastest-scaling technology companies in the world, and is expanding rapidly across areas including VAT/GST, sales tax, e-invoicing, withholding taxes, tariffs, and input tax recovery. This is a rare opportunity to join a deeply technical, product-led environment where tax expertise directly influences the development of AI systems at scale.

About the Role

We are looking for an experienced indirect tax professional to support the evolution of a proprietary AI-driven tax determination engine. Reporting directly into senior leadership within Tax & AI Enablement, this individual will sit at the intersection of tax, product, operations, and engineering. You will play a critical role in helping translate complex global tax legislation into structured logic and scalable operational processes that improve the quality, accuracy, and defensibility of AI-generated compliance outcomes. The role is highly cross-functional and suited to someone who enjoys solving difficult problems in fast-moving environments where there is little existing playbook.

Responsibilities

  • Support the continuous refinement and validation of AI-generated indirect tax determinations across sales tax, and related transaction taxes
  • Review complex jurisdictional tax treatments and convert technical concepts into structured logic frameworks usable by engineering and product teams
  • Work closely with internal research, product, and engineering stakeholders to improve system accuracy and scalability
  • Assist in maintaining and expanding internal tax knowledge frameworks covering multiple global jurisdictions
  • Monitor legislative developments and assess the downstream impact on AI-driven compliance workflows
  • Contribute to testing, QA processes, reconciliations, and control frameworks relating to automated tax outputs
  • Provide technical feedback on edge-case scenarios, product functionality, and transaction-level determinations
  • Support onboarding and guidance of more junior tax researchers and AI trainers as the function scales
  • Help shape scalable approaches to areas such as e-invoicing, digital services taxation, marketplace rules, and emerging international compliance obligations

Qualifications

  • Strong indirect tax background covering sales tax within industry, advisory, or tax technology environments
  • Experience working alongside technology, product, transformation, or systems teams
  • Ability to interpret complex legislation and communicate conclusions clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Strong understanding of compliance processes, controls, reconciliations, and operational tax workflows
  • Naturally detail-oriented with a high accuracy threshold
  • Comfortable operating in fast-paced, ambiguous, high-growth environments
  • Intellectual curiosity around AI, automation, and the future of tax technology
  • International mindset and interest in global tax systems

Preferred Skills

  • Experience within tax technology, SaaS, marketplaces, fintech, or digital-first businesses
  • Exposure to AI-enabled workflows, rule engines, or automated compliance products
  • Experience dealing with cross-border transaction flows and multi-jurisdictional tax analysis
  • Background in process improvement, transformation, or scalable operational design

Pay range and compensation package

What They’re Looking For: The successful individual will likely be commercially minded, highly driven, and energized by building in environments where speed and ownership matter. This role would suit someone who enjoys operating close to decision-making, solving genuinely complex global tax problems, and helping shape how AI systems interact with real-world legislation at scale.

Equal Opportunity Statement

We are committed to diversity and inclusivity in our hiring practices.
