• Partner with Accounting, Revenue, Legal, Procurement, and Engineering to incorporate indirect tax requirements into billing systems, ERP configurations, controls, and new market or product initiatives.
• Develop and maintain process documentation, audit-readiness materials, workstream tracking, and SOX-aligned controls that support a scalable indirect tax function.

• Knowledgeable in U.S. multi-state sales and use tax, including nexus analysis, taxability, compliance, and audit support.
• Familiar with international VAT/GST regimes and experienced coordinating compliance across multiple jurisdictions and external advisors.
• Experienced using tax determination and ERP systems; experience with Avalara and NetSuite is preferred.
