Remote Founding Tax Preparer

$180k - $220k
Full-time
Job Title: Remote Founding Tax Preparer


Job ID: 1060873


Date Posted: July 21, 2026


Employment Type: Full-time


Hiring Company (Organization): Confidential


Location: US Remote (Telecommute)
Applicants must be located in the United States.


Base Salary: $180,000 – $220,000 per year (USD)
Commensurate with experience and qualifications.


Job Description:

Our client is building a firm designed around modern AI capabilities—where AI handles as much heavy lifting as possible, and human judgment is applied where it matters most.
Our established client will launch an AI-native, full-service tax preparation firm and is looking to hire a Founding Tax Professional (CPA or EA) to partner directly with the executive leadership team.


Responsibilities: 
Phase 1:

  • Partner with the executive team to build the legal, business, and operational structures of the tax practice.
  • Serve as the Responsible Official on the firm’s EFIN application; build out IRC §7216 consent flows, FTC Safeguards Rule compliance, state registrations, and data security standards.
  • Write the SOPs for intake, workpapers, review standards, e-file procedures, and client communication.
  • Collaborate with engineering and AI teams to design and define where AI executes, where humans verify, and how quality is measured.
Phase 2:
  • Prepare, review, and sign complex individual returns (1040s with crypto activity, Schedule C self-employment, K-1s, and multi-state filings).
  • Hold signing authority as the paid preparer on client returns.
  • Oversee client communication and drive an exceptional, high-tech client experience.
  • Continuously feed operational insights back to the AI/engineering pipeline to optimize future return automation.
Phase 3:
  • Step into executive tax leadership as the firm grows


Qualifications:
Required:
  • Active CPA or EA license in good standing.
  • Signing & EFIN Authority: Full willingness to serve as the signing paid preparer and EFIN Responsible Official.
  • Full-Cycle 1040 Expertise: Deep hands-on experience taking complex individual returns from intake to e-file acceptance (Schedule C, K-1s, multi-state filings) using modern tax software stacks.
  • Crypto Tax Knowledge: Solid working understanding of cryptocurrency reporting (capital gains/losses, cost basis methodologies, staking/mining income, and resolving messy exchange/on-chain data).
  • AI Tool Fluency: Active, daily usage of modern AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude Code, Codex, or LLM-assisted workflows) in your professional or personal work.
  • Location: Must be based in the United States.
Benefits:
  • Competitive salary paired with ground-floor economic upside/equity in a new business unit backed by a large built-in client base (100,000+ warm leads).
  • Fully remote work setup with flexible modern operations.
  • Full health coverage.
  • Mentorship and daily collaboration with the platform's founding and executive team.
