Senior Tax Professional - AI Tax Engineer (Remote)

Filed•New York, NY

5d•$85,800 - $101,400•Remote

About The Position

Filed is hiring a fully remote, US-based AI Tax Engineer to bring tax practice expertise to its AI tax preparation platform. The role is strategic and works alongside Filed’s team of CPAs, product and engineering leads, customer firms, and company leadership. The AI Tax Engineer helps define quality standards, influence product direction, and shape how the platform supports firms from client-document intake through tax planning. The role is full-time and open to candidates anywhere in the United States except New York; New York candidates are directed to a separate posting. The position is designed for an experienced tax professional who wants to apply their judgment across a platform used by accounting firms rather than continue signing returns. It offers exposure to how multiple firms operate, with no billable-hour or utilization targets. The role is new, has no established playbook, and requires comfort with ambiguity and iteration. Its scope is expected to grow with the product, and strong performers may have the opportunity to lead the tax function as it grows.

Requirements

Licensed CPA with at least 5 years of experience.
Based in the United States; candidates based in New York are directed to a separate posting.
Deep experience with at least one of CCH Axcess, UltraTax, Lacerte, Drake, or ProConnect.
Comfortable working across individual and business tax returns, including partnerships and K-1s.
Clear writing skills, including the ability to influence through documents and comments.
Strategic thinking that considers the broader tax practice, not only the return at hand.
Ownership and follow-through in resolving problems.
Comfort with ambiguity and working in a small, fast-moving team.
Credibility with partners and preparers.
Ability to explain technical tax positions clearly to people outside tax.
Willingness to challenge or push back, including with Filed.

Responsibilities

Set quality standards across Filed’s products as a tax expert working alongside the team of CPAs.
Partner with product and engineering teams to determine what to build next, from document intake through tax planning.
Work closely with customer firms to understand their practices and translate that understanding into product direction.
Work directly with company leadership and help shape how Filed’s tax team is built.
Help define the role and contribute to the development of the tax function as the product grows.
