About The Role

We're seeking a Tax Manager who brings deep technical tax, compliance and reporting expertise and a forward-looking mindset around AI-driven practice improvement. This role offers broad exposure to federal, state, and indirect tax — bringing sound technical judgment and the initiative to make the function faster and better than you found it.

What You'll Do

Tax Reporting & Compliance

Lead end-to-end preparation and review of quarterly and annual income tax provisions, including current and deferred tax calculations, valuation allowance analysis, and preparation of related financial statement footnote disclosures

Oversee the preparation and review of federal and state income tax returns, estimates, and extensions for consolidated, combined, and standalone entities

Manage responses to federal and state audit inquiries and tax notices, including preparing supporting documentation and coordinating with internal and external stakeholders

Lead tax planning initiatives, research, and analysis to develop efficient, compliant tax strategies

Prepare or review tax-related journal entries, accruals, account reconciliations, and other month-end close activities

Monitor tax law changes and provide guidance to ensure compliance with federal, state, and local regulations

Maintain and enhance internal tax controls, recommending and implementing process improvements

Lead the R&D tax credit process, partnering with internal teams and external advisors to identify qualifying activities and ensure proper documentation

Draft technical memos and support materials to substantiate tax positions

Collaborate with the Tax Director and cross-functional teams on various tax initiatives and special projects across the business

AI-Driven Tax Practice

Reach for AI first — use Claude, Claude Code, and similar tools to accelerate research, draft technical memos, analyze notices, run calculations, and design repeatable workflows

Default to AI, don't defer to it. The tools give you leverage; the work is still yours. Every output you put your name on — whether it's a written position, a calculation, or a workflow result — is something you can explain and stand behind

Tax work is multi-layered — some steps demand deep judgment, others not as much. Map the difference. Automate what's mechanical, build structured workflows for what's in between, and protect your focus for the analysis and positions that actually require you

What You'll Bring

Required

Bachelor's degree in Accounting; CPA certification required

5+ years of experience in corporate taxes, including both provision and compliance

Strong knowledge of federal, state tax laws as well as US GAAP

Exceptional analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making skills

Proven ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously and meet tight deadlines

Strong attention to detail and ability to perform under pressure

Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with a collaborative approach to working with internal teams and external partners

High level of ethics, integrity, and professional judgment

You've rebuilt something because of AI and it runs faster now. When something new lands, you don't prompt and paste — you interrogate it, pressure-test it, and know exactly where it's wrong before anyone else does

Preferred

Experience in Big 4 public accounting or a publicly traded company

Master's degree in Taxation, JD, or LLM with a focus in Tax

Proficiency in NetSuite or similar ERP systems

Location

This role is based in one of our Toronto, Miami or Phoenix offices, in-person four days per week (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday). Candidates must be based within commuting distance.
