Your Role:

As a Senior Software Engineer on the Tax Platform Engineering team, you will architect, build, and scale the mission-critical systems that ensure accuracy, verifiability, and compliance for our global tax obligations. You will be responsible for engineering the durable systems of record that serve as the definitive source of truth for our financial operations, directly mitigating financial risk and ensuring auditable adherence to complex financial laws in a high-volume, regulated environment

Key Responsibilities:

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams of tax analysts, legal experts, and product managers to translate complex and evolving regulatory requirements into robust, maintainable, and verifiable software solutions.
  • Provide technical leadership and mentorship, driving best practices in distributed system design, API definition with gRPC, code quality, and advanced testing strategies.
  • Build systems with auditability, traceability, and data lineage as a first-class concern to ensure transparency for our auditors and regulators.
  • Own the full lifecycle of your services, including automated deployment (CI/CD with tools like Jenkins and Terraform), proactive monitoring, and incident response, following a 'you build it, you run it' philosophy.
