About the role

Your Role

We are seeking a dedicated Tax Manager - Product & Operations to act as our core Subject Matter Expert (SME) for Germany, while playing a critical role in our expansion into key European markets like Spain and France.

In this highly collaborative, hands-on role, you will sit at the intersection of tax compliance and product management. Working closely with senior management, and our operations and product teams, you will help interpret local tax codes, contribute to the design of our calculation logic, assist in the engineering build-out, and act as a key contact point for tax authorities.

Key Responsibilities

Product Integration & Engineering Support

  • Bridge Law and Code: Act as a vital link between tax legislation and our engineering pods. Help translate complex requirements (e.g., German Abgeltungsteuer logic, capital gains offset rules) into clear, actionable requirements for product managers and backend developers.
  • Pan-European Expansion Support: While your primary mandate is the German market, you will partner with senior management to research, interpret, and integrate tax calculation and reporting logic for secondary markets, with an immediate focus on Spain and France.
  • Product Build-Out: Contribute specialized tax input for new product launches. Assist in reviewing tax logic during the design phase and support the testing of calculation engines to ensure accuracy before launch.

Subject Matter Expertise & Ongoing Compliance

  • Primary German SME: Serve as a subject matter expert on German personal income tax, capital gains taxation, and local reporting obligations for financial instruments (equities, ETFs, derivatives, crypto).
  • Workflow Automation: Support the continuous improvement and automation of tax-related workflows, helping the operations team minimize manual reviews and optimize cross-border efficiency.
