About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Prepare and review federal and multi-state corporate income tax returns, extensions, and estimated tax payments — doing the work directly, not just reviewing others' output.
Own the quarterly and annual income tax provision process (ASC 740) including current and deferred tax calculations, uncertain tax positions, and financial statement disclosures.
Coordinate with and manage external tax advisors, Big 4 firms, and outside counsel — driving their work and ensuring quality and timeliness while keeping costs in check.
Support the Director of Tax in developing and executing tax planning strategies that reduce the company's effective tax rate and manage risk across federal, state, and local jurisdictions.
Research and analyze the tax implications of business initiatives, new product launches, contracts, and corporate transactions, and communicate findings clearly to non-tax stakeholders.
Monitor and assess the impact of changes to federal, state, and local tax laws and regulations, and proactively flag issues or opportunities to the Director of Tax and Finance leadership.
Support federal and state tax audits, including preparing responses, gathering documentation, and coordinating with external advisors and tax authorities.
Help build and maintain internal tax policies, controls, and process documentation to support a scalable, audit-ready tax function.
Partner cross-functionally with Accounting, Legal, FP&A, and HR on tax-sensitive matters including equity compensation (RSUs, ISOs, NSOs), payroll tax, and intercompany arrangements.
Contribute to tax due diligence and structuring support on M&A transactions and corporate development activities as needed.
Identify and implement process improvements and tax technology tools to drive efficiency across compliance and provision workflows.

Requirements

What you’ll need

5–8 years of corporate tax experience, with a strong preference for candidates who have both Big 4 public accounting and in-house experience.
Deep, hands-on technical expertise in U.S. federal and multi-state income tax compliance and ASC 740 tax provisions — you have personally prepared and reviewed complex returns, not just managed others doing so.
CPA required; MST or JD a plus.
Proven ability to work independently with minimal oversight and manage multiple priorities and deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
Comfortable operating in a lean team where ambiguity is the norm and process-building is part of the job.
Experience with tax implications relevant to SaaS, digital health, or healthcare technology business models (e.g., sales tax on software/services, nexus analysis, healthcare-specific exemptions).
Experience with international tax matters including transfer pricing, GILTI, or FDII in a multinational context.
Strong written and verbal communication skills — ability to translate technical tax issues for Finance, Legal, and executive audiences.
Proficiency with tax compliance and provision software (e.g., OneSource, Corptax, Bloomberg Tax) and ERP systems (e.g., Oracle, Workday).
