Job Description:

If you are interested in applying for this job, please make sure you meet the following requirements as listed below.

(REMOTE) Founding Tax Lead | Immediate Equity | $150K–$200K

What if your next move in tax gave you the opportunity to help build the product instead of simply using it?

We're working with a well-funded tax technology company that has developed an API-first, IRS-authorized e-filing platform and is looking to hire a CPA-licensed tax professional as its Founding Tax Lead.

This is a unique opportunity to work directly alongside the Co-Founder and company leadership to help shape, develop, and scale the platform from a tax perspective.

The position is remote, with the expectation of traveling to Chicago approximately once per month for team and client meetings, along with occasional travel alongside the Co-Founder as needed.

This is not a traditional public accounting opportunity. It's designed for a tax professional who wants to take their technical tax experience and apply it in a high-growth tax technology environment, with immediate equity, direct access to the founders, and the ability to influence how the product is built and scaled.

If you're an experienced tax professional who has thought about moving outside of traditional public accounting but still wants to leverage your technical tax background, this is a unique chance to help build the technology that tax professionals use rather than simply being another user of it.

Please apply or reach out to me directly if you'd like to discuss the opportunity confidentially.
