Director of Tax Operations at whatnot

This role is designed for a seasoned tax leader with at least 12 years of experience, likely coming from a Big 4 background or a multinational tech environment. You should be a technical expert in global direct taxes, ASC 740, and transfer pricing. Because this company is a high-growth marketplace, they need someone with a "roll-up-your-sleeves" mentality who can build tax operations from the ground up while navigating complex international regulations. The compensation is highly competitive ($250k–$285k) and paired with an impressive benefits package, including a 4% 401k match, family planning benefits, and a "dogfooding" budget to shop on the platform. While the team is "remote co-located," this specific leadership role requires being near a hub in SF, LA, Seattle, or NYC. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Have mastered the complexities of ASC 740, R&D tax credits, and global income tax compliance. * Thrive in high-growth environments where you must balance strategic tax planning with hands-on execution. * Enjoy collaborating cross-functionally with Engineering and Product teams to automate tax processes. * Are a CPA or MST holder with a proven track record of managing audits and external advisors.
