At Column Tax, we’re building the next generation of tax software. Come join us to build delightful, transparent, and easy-to-use tax products.

What we are looking for at Column Tax
  • Improvise, adapt, overcome. We are a start-up, so everyone is encouraged to participate across teams, and proactively solve problems and create solutions.

  • A focus on empathy, communication and teamwork. Tax software can’t be solved alone. You will be working collaboratively with Engineers, Tax analysts, Design, and GTM on almost every project.

  • You have experience communicating highly technical concepts and working closely with engineers

  • You have strong written communication skills

  • You get excited about doing the little things needed to get a product to market

  • You are able to handle ambiguity & change

San Francisco 🌉

Right now, we're prioritizing searching for folks who are energized about working in-person in San Francisco at least 2-3 days a week.

Day-to-day
  • Talk to customers and users: talk directly to our partners, prospects, and taxpayers to deeply understand their needs.

  • Work with GTM on strategy: work with our GTM team to decide on our Product strategy.

  • Execute: work with Engineering, Design, and Tax to spec and execute on our most-important projects.

Week-to-week
  • Week 1

    • Meet everyone at Column Tax and get a run down of what everyone does.

    • Get set up and make your first changes.

    • Start & finish your first mini project.

  • Month 1

    • Lead and ship your own project.

    • Demo your work at our company all-hands!

    • Talk directly with partners, prospects, and users.

  • Month 3

    • Strategize and plan our next-up work.

    • Decide on the product lifecycle: what should we build to meet our users' needs?

    • Bring clarity + energy to the team while championing your longer-term vision.

Interview Process
Step 1: Intro call with one of our founders or another member of the team

We want to get to know you and for you to get to know us! On this call, we will talk about your professional background, what types of problems you like to solve, and what you want out of your next role. It’s also your opportunity to ask with any questions you have about the business and how else we might be able to support you.

Step 2: Behavioral interview

One of our founders will dig into the details of your resume, especially wanting to hear about what you did at each role and how you transitioned to your next role. We'll also dig into at least one major project that you shipped.

Step 3: Product scenario exercise or writing sample

Share a writing sample that shows your written communication and product thinking skills or show off your product thinking in a (fun!) product scenario written exercise.

Step 4: On-site interview or work trial

Tell us about your previous work & values, see what working with us would be like, and work through a product problem live with the team either via a one-day "onsite" or via a paid work trial (full or part-time for ~1 week). We can work with you to figure out logistics that work for all of us! We've found that many folks like doing these because both sides get to see what working with each other is really like.

Step 5: References + Offer!

We love talking to former managers to get to know more about you than we can in an interview process before presenting you with a formal offer! This could the first step in a hopefully long and fruitful working relationship.

At Column Tax, we’re committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace. If you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with everything in the job description, we still encourage you to apply. You might be the right person for the role and we’d love the opportunity to meet you!
