WHAT YOU BRING * 3–5 years of indirect tax compliance experience with direct ownership of filings across one or more APAC jurisdictions. * Solid working knowledge of APAC indirect tax regimes — particularly GST (Australia, India, Singapore), Japan Consumption Tax, China VAT, or Korean VAT — and a proven ability to apply rules accurately under time pressure. * Advanced Excel skills and experience transforming large ERP data extracts into clean, filing-ready datasets. * Hands-on experience with NetSuite or a comparable ERP system. * Clear written and verbal English communication skills for a global, remote-first finance team spanning multiple time zones. * Proven ability to deliver accurate, timely work across multiple jurisdictions and filing cycles with minimal supervision. * Sharp analytical instincts and the ability to spot data anomalies or compliance gaps before they reach the filing stage. BONUS POINTS * Experience across multiple APAC jurisdictions, particularly India or Japan's qualified invoice system. * Exposure to indirect tax technology, e-invoicing platforms, or ERP automation in an APAC context. * Background in a multinational technology or SaaS company. * Familiarity with indirect tax regimes outside APAC, such as EMEA VAT or LATAM indirect taxes. #LI-DS1 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION - WE TAKE CARE OF OUR PEOPLE As a distributed company, diversity drives our identity.
