A DIFFERENT KIND OF JOB DESCRIPTION

At Filed, we believe in radical transparency. Everything is open: company finances, team salaries, stock options, anonymous team

feedback. That extends to how we talk about this job, so what you'll read here looks a little different from other job ads. It

starts with why this is a terrible job. Then it explains why it might be the best career move you'll ever make.

WHY THIS IS A TERRIBLE JOB

This is an incredibly high-paced, high-tempo environment. We're making a generational bet to change all of our lives, and

generational bets are not comfortable.

You will build agents for subjective workflows. Tax law is objective, but what applies under it and how professionals interpret it

is full of judgment. You can give two tax professionals the same task and get two different results where both are right. We're

building agentic systems that have to reach their level of accuracy, not a level we decided is good enough. From an engineering

standpoint, this is the hardest thing most of us have ever built. At times it will feel like hitting your head against the wall.

Customers will sometimes get frustrated, because they expect deterministic results from probabilistic systems, and we're managing

the expectations of some of the biggest firms in the world, including the Big Four.

And the rhythm is real: we get to the office, we work, we go home and spend time with our families, and then many of us get back

online to support our customers in US hours. It's tough. It's relentless.

WHY IT MIGHT BE THE BEST CAREER CHOICE YOU'LL EVER MAKE

It's addictive to be part of a business when you know you're winning. Filed is adding millions of dollars of revenue every

quarter, customers are signing up in numbers, and in under two years we've become the market leader in a space with entrenched

incumbents and a drastic need for new AI tools. When we come into head-to-heads with competitors, we win every time, because our

product is superior. And we stay focused and diligent: we only work with tax firms that have the right expectations, which is why

our typical customer is mid-market and enterprise.

The industry looks boring from the outside, but the problem is unsolved, and the space has been riddled with products below the

mark for decades. When you push through the wall, there's a spark of joy: a customer says "wow, this is phenomenal." That keeps

happening.

The opportunity here is not only to make a great deal of money. It's to have real impact on our mission: making this profession

extraordinary. Nobody became a tax professional for the admin. They got into this work to be creative with tax law, to have fun,

and to change the fabric of society. Filed enables them to do exactly that.

We've raised $17.2 million to date, led by Northzone, and you can read the story in TechCrunch. Our focus now is to deliver the

roadmap and continue to win.

WHAT YOU'LL BUILD

As a Senior Full Stack AI Developer, you'll build the agentic systems at the heart of Filed:

Agentic workflows that mirror how tax professionals actually work, judgment call by judgment call
  • Evaluation and verification systems that measure our accuracy against professional standards, not benchmarks we invented for

ourselves

The model integrations and tooling that turn probabilistic systems into something firms trust with high-stakes work

You'll work at the frontier of applying AI to subjective domains, where two different answers can both be correct, and where

shipping means earning the trust of professionals who scrutinize every output.

WHAT YOU'LL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR

Building and maintaining fullstack features across our AI tax prep, planning, and review products
Owning the UX and backend logic for the workflows tax professionals use every day
Shipping fast, watching metrics, and deciding what to improve next, without being told
Making LLMs work for our customers to achieve higher accuracy and transparency
Keeping the codebase clean, typed, and fast as we scale

YOUR HARD SKILLSET

Comfortable in TypeScript, React, and Python: you've built complex, data-heavy UIs and backend services before
Familiar with cloud infrastructure on Google Cloud and/or Azure
Bonus if you've worked in fast-paced startups or regulated industries
Even bigger bonus if you've taken a product from 0 to 1 and watched real users depend on it

YOUR SOFT SKILLSET

Comfortable being uncomfortable and making calls with incomplete data
Empathetic and curious: building for the user, not just for clean code
Highly collaborative across product, engineering, and tax
Detail-oriented but pragmatic: you know when polish matters and when to ship
You own your work and welcome the accountability that comes with it

A CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM

We think of ourselves as a sports team. Incredibly high performance, incredibly high standards, and real success to show for it.

Being a championship team means working with people who are deeply proud of the work they do and have great fun doing it together.

We measure employee happiness constantly, and our eNPS is +60. We don't say that to brag. We say it because a team playing at this

tempo only holds together if people genuinely love being on it. Every four months, the whole company comes together for an

offsite.

WHAT FILED STANDS FOR

Not posters. Not corporate language. Real operating standards.

1. No problem is someone else's problem

If you see it, it's yours. Bugs, customer confusion, missed expectations, internal friction. We don't pass problems sideways and

we don't hide behind roles. You fix the typo even if you didn't write it, jump into a customer issue even if it's not your

department, escalate early, and close loops fully. Ownership means you drive resolution, not that you suffer silently or burn out

doing everything alone.

2. Waiting is not a strategy

Momentum is our advantage. We don't wait for perfect information or stall because something is unclear. You ship a V1 instead of

debating V5, test instead of theorize, run small experiments instead of requesting big approvals, and propose solutions instead of

just naming blockers. Speed is powerful. Sloppiness is not, and recklessness has no place in a high-trust industry.

3. We run toward the fire

When something breaks, we move. Tax is high-stakes and trust is fragile. We acknowledge issues immediately, communicate clearly

and often, prioritize customer-impacting problems fast, and stay on it until it's fully resolved. Firefighting is a strength, not

panic, and never an excuse for preventable mistakes.

4. We win on customer experience

AI will commoditize. Features will copy. Pricing will compress. Experience won't. We respond faster than customers expect,

communicate proactively, think like a partner rather than a ticketing system, and anticipate needs before they're raised.

Overdelivering means raising the standard of care, not overpromising, hero culture, or burning the team out.

WHO THIS SUITS

This is a very fun environment, but it only suits people who meet the criteria we're looking for:

People who want to win
People who have a point to prove
People who want to write their own job descriptions

HOW WE PAY

Nothing at Filed is behind closed doors. Everyone here sees everyone else's salary, because we believe transparency creates trust,

and trust is the foundation of excellent teamwork. Compensation isn't a negotiation. Depending on your location, everyone receives

the same three offers, and all of our offers are above market benchmarking.

This role is assessed at Level 4 (Senior). The salary and equity bandings are:

Most Equity: 82,500 SEK per month + $180,000 of equity
Great Equity: 90,000 SEK per month + $120,000 of equity
Good Equity: 97,500 SEK per month + $60,000 of equity

We run performance reviews every four months. Meet your goals and you can expect to double your equity by the end of your first

year.

One more thing, in the spirit of transparency: some people who apply for this role will be assessed at a different level. If the

team determines your level of responsibility sits differently, we'll adjust the offer accordingly. If you're earlier in your

journey than this role expects, that's not a problem. Apply to the Fullstack AI Engineer role instead.

BENEFITS

A minimum of 30 days of holiday per year, whether you're in Europe or the US
In the US: fully covered medical expenses on platinum-level plans, with 100% coverage for your dependents as well
In Europe: the full set of mandatory benefits, and more on top
Company-wide offsites every four months

THE PROCESS

Quick intro call (30 minutes)
Technical walkthrough and async task (60 minutes)
Final round with our team (120 minutes)

In just 3.5 hours, you'll be wanting early access, just like the rest of our team, to get into the stack and start building a

generational company, even before your first day.

ABOUT FILED

Filed is the AI tax preparer trusted by America's accounting firms.

Taxes might seem boring, but they are the $5 trillion backbone of the US economy. Globally, nearly $15 trillion in taxes is

collected every year. Behind every dollar of it sits a professional making judgment calls, and the industry that does this work is

breaking under a talent shortage no one has solved. We're fixing it. Today, hundreds of firms run Filed inside the systems they

already use, and we're backed by Northzone, Neo, Analog, and Raine.

There has never been a more exciting time to work on a problem this complex. Join us while "I was there when it all started" is

still true.
