  • Collect, validate, and store customer exemption certificates, monitor expiration dates and proactively request renewals, and maintain an organized exemption certificate database.
  • Monitor economic nexus thresholds across all applicable jurisdictions, register the company in new states when nexus is established, and maintain a nexus register tracking registration status, filing frequency, and account numbers.
  • Respond to state and local tax authority notices, gather and organize documentation for state sales tax audits, and assist with penalty abatement requests.
  • Partner with Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable to ensure tax is charged correctly and use tax obligations are identified, advise product and operations teams on the tax implications of new offerings or business changes, and support IT and ERP teams with tax engine configuration and rate table maintenance.
  • Operate and maintain the indirect tax platform (Avalara), monitor automated return filing outputs and review AI-prepared returns before submission, and identify and flag data quality issues affecting tax calculation accuracy.
  • Prepare and support business license registrations, prepare and file property tax returns, and provide other business compliance support as needed.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or Business preferred. Equivalent experience will be considered in lieu of degree.
  • 2+ years of hands-on sales and use tax compliance experience, including independently owned multi-state filing.
  • Experience managing an exemption certificate portfolio using a dedicated platform (e.g., Avalara CertCapture or equivalent).
  • Hands-on experience configuring an indirect tax platform such as Avalara, Vertex, or Sovos, beyond end-user access.
  • Experience with nexus analysis and state registration, including post-Wayfair economic nexus thresholds.
  • Experience supporting a state sales tax audit a plus, but not required.
  • Strong working knowledge of sales and use tax law, including taxability rules, exemption types, nexus standards, and return mechanics across multiple states.
  • Intermediate to advanced Excel proficiency, including pivot tables, XLOOKUP, SUMIFS, and Power Query for reconciliation and data analysis.
  • Ability to extract and reconcile transaction-level data from an ERP or billing system (NetSuite, SAP, Oracle, or Dynamics).
  • Proficiency with at least one professional tax research database (Bloomberg Tax, Thomson Reuters Checkpoint, or CCH).
  • Ability to document taxability determinations in clear, audit-defensible written memos.
  • Exceptional attention to detail and accuracy under high volume.
  • Self-directed and highly organized.
  • Analytically driven, with strong skills in tracing and resolving errors.
  • Ability to translate tax requirements into plain language for non-tax colleagues in Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, and IT.
