Tax Filing Specialist job opportunity
We have an
immediate opening for a hungry, highly-experienced, highly-detail-oriented Tax
Filing specialist who is fanatical about helping SMB businesses save a ton of
time with sales tax compliance.
TaxJar is
the leading technology solution for busy eCommerce sellers to manage sales tax
and is trusted by more than 9,000 businesses. We were founded to help eCommerce
owners spend less time on sales tax and more time growing the businesses they
love. We’re passionate about creating simple solutions and leveraging
technology to solve complicated sales tax issues. We're not just about sales
tax though, we're a technology-driven company focused on providing a great
experience for both merchants and developers. We work closely with eCommerce
partners like Amazon, Shopify, Walmart, eBay, Square, Magento and WooCommerce
to help eCommerce businesses thrive.
We offer
TaxJar Reports, a simple web-based reporting tool that organizes sales tax data
into return-ready reports by state, AutoFile, a service that automatically files sales tax
returns (this is the team you'd be joining), and SmartCalcs API, a modern, accurate, sales tax API
for developers to outsource sales tax rates and calculations.
This is
a full-time remote position, available to folks located in the continental US
only.
What does a
Tax Filing Specialist do?

customers to ensure we have the proper credentials to file sales tax
returns
- File a high volume of sales tax
returns to states every month (don’t worry, we’ll train you)
- Work with representatives of
states to quickly solve issues related to invalid filings
- Categorize and quickly respond
to customer questions and requests via email
- Contribute to clear and simple
documentation and support content
- Work closely with our technical
team to continually make our filing process more efficient
You're the
ideal candidate if you
- Have
impeccable attention to detail
- Think the chance to understand
the ins-and-outs of sales tax is interesting!
- Have prior experience handling
highly-sensitive data
- Are in a position where you're
currently working directly with customers
- Approach success from the
customer’s point of view
- Are extremely patient...sales
tax is painful :-)
- Have mad written and verbal
communication skills
- BONUS POINTS if you have previously
filed sales tax returns for more than 6 months in multiple states
You’ll be a
great fit on our team if you're
- A
pro at communicating
- Well-experienced
working remotely
- Accountable
& KPI driven
- Never
tired of learning
- Looking for a culture that
prioritizes shipping products and going to market quickly
- Confident in your skills and a
solid team player (We’re all peers here, no egos please)
- Hungry to play an impactful
role, and not afraid to go big and potentially fail
- Excited to be part of the
company leading innovation in the sales tax space
We’re a happy team and we all really love what we
do. We've created a space where high-achievers can succeed, but are also safe
to fail. We're profitable and focused on growing TaxJar sustainably. We're
always learning how to make TaxJar the best place to work for all of us, and
not just another tech startup. We’re always looking for an amazing new
teammates to come share in the excitement of solving real-world problems with
technology.
Does TaxJar
offer any benefits?
The entire
team works remotely from wherever we work best for each team member. For most
of us, that's home. For others, that may be a local coffee shop or a summer
vacation house. The only requirement is that we're working from a place with
WiFi, and we're able to get our work done.
We love
being a distributed team, and are looking for new teammates who will thrive in
this unique environment.
