About the role

We're looking for an experienced leader to own our global e-invoicing strategy and help build a best-in-class e-invoicing platform for our customers. In this role, you'll combine deep expertise in global indirect tax and e-invoicing regulations with strong product and systems thinking to design scalable solutions that enable customers to comply with rapidly evolving global mandates.

What they're looking for

  • 8+ years of experience in indirect tax, tax technology, VAT/GST, or global tax compliance
  • 3+ years direct e-invoicing experience
  • Experience designing or implementing e-invoicing solutions across multiple countries
  • Strong experience partnering with Product and Engineering teams to build tax technology products
  • Demonstrated ability to translate complex regulatory requirements into scalable product specifications and technical requirements
  • Excellent program management skills with experience leading complex cross-functional initiatives

Every breakthrough in trade infrastructure has followed the same pattern: reduce a transaction cost, expand the market. Containerization for goods. SWIFT for money. Stripe for payments. Compliance is one of the last and largest — and the hardest, because trade rules aren't data to be looked up.

We handle the entire lifecycle — calculation, registration, filing, remittance — at millisecond latency with zero downtime.

Backed by a16z and YC. $21M Series A, 30%+ month-over-month growth, customers include ElevenLabs, Replit, Deel, Runway, and Lovable.
