About The Position

Enterprises waste millions on accounting firms to calculate R&D tax credits and capitalize software costs. Neo.Tax is automating this entirely. Our software ingests data from project management, identity management, payroll systems, and leverages AI to complete in hours what used to take weeks or months of manual work for U.S. businesses. Neo.Tax is seeking a Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer who wants to build products that automate manual enterprise accounting and finance processes. The ideal candidate has expertise in developing complex web applications on both the frontend and backend. Starting out, you will work on our software capitalization product. Software capitalization is the accounting process of tracking development costs as assets rather than expenses. It's required for compliance and affects how companies report financials. Our customers rely on us to automatically sync accounting data so that they can capitalize development costs monthly and maintain compliance with accounting standards. We are a remote company, but we prefer to hire in time zones that can overlap with our HQ in Mountain View, CA!
