Taxwire is solving a forever problem. Anthropic might eat half the SaaS companies. AI could automate jobs. They might even cure death. But taxes are forever.
We’re tackling one of the largest markets in the world. → Indirect taxes (sales tax, VAT, etc.) are one of the most complex and least sexy forms of taxes in the world. Today, businesses globally remit $600B+ in sales tax and ~$5 trillion in VAT every year. The average $50-100M business will manage sales tax filings across 40+ US states and 20-30 countries. The problem space is deeply complex and ripe for automation and better products.
Our customers trust us to fully manage their tax compliance. → Most finance, accounting, and tax teams are not experts in sales tax. They also have 12 other responsibilities to manage, that don’t include thinking about indirect tax compliance. Taxwire exists to be their trusted partner in managing their compliance from end to end.
What we’re building to serve our customers. → To achieve this, we’re rebuilding a global tax platform from the ground up: the data layer, the tax calculation engine, the filing infrastructure, tax remittance, customer dashboards, accounting + billing workflows, and AI-powered the services that surround it.
Our team has deep industry expertise + startup experience → Our engineering, product, tax team’s built the tax products at Stripe, TaxJar, and Avalara prior. Others started VC-backed companies prior to joining. Others helped scale other startups in the Office of the CFO. Everyone’s here to win and build something that endures.
Where we’re at today → Recently raised our Series A, have hundreds of customers across SMB and mid-market, and are growing fast. 50%+ of our customers are ripping out legacy incumbents to switch to us. We serve customers in tech, but also in non-tech industries like construction and manufacturing.
Our customers → We serve finance, accounting, and tax teams. Some of our customers you’d know like Omni, Pulley, Modal, Spellbook, and Middesk. Others you wouldn’t because they’re far outside Silicon Valley or tech (e.g. construction and manufacturing). To date, we’re very proud to have had 0 churn.
Our investors → We’ve raised ~$25M from Headline, XYZ Ventures, Vinyl, Recall Capital, J Ventures, Nomo Ventures, Siqi Chen, Michael Bock, Justin Mares, Mike Rosengarten (OpenGov co-founder), Erik Torenberg, and dozens of other operators, CFOs, and accountants.
We’re looking for a skilled, experienced, and motivated Backend Engineer to join our team. This role is focused on backend infrastructure, systems architecture, and core product logic. Frontend experience is a plus, but not required.
You’ll work closely with our founders, engineers, and tax SMEs to architect and build the foundational systems that power Taxwire - from our data model and automation pipelines to real-time tax calculation and compliance logic. You’ll play a key role in defining the internal platform that enables our team to ship faster, automate more, and scale globally.
This is a great role for someone who thrives on complexity and wants to help build something important from the ground up. If you’ve ever nerded out over how Stripe, Rippling, or Modern Treasury abstract complicated domains, this is that kind of role.
