You own the international tax domain end to end: you set product strategy for the tax capability area, expand business requirements into durable capability strategies rather than one-off market builds, and navigate cross-team dynamics across engineering, legal, and compliance to ship it. You solve ambiguous, cross-market problems using data and AI methodology, not just domain memory, and you use AI to turn scattered market and regulatory signal into product opportunities other people haven't framed yet. The Staff Product Manager, Tax International role sits between the Tax & Accountant domain, Legal, and the product and engineering organization. It owns a centralized, AI-powered tax compliance layer that turns country-specific indirect and direct tax rules into reusable configurations, replacing slow, costly, country-by-country manual work that leaves Intuit and its customers exposed. Responsibilities 1. Own the AI-native tax compliance platform Builds the centralized, reusable tax layer that lets every market be a configuration, not a rebuild. Own the relationship with the US Based central teams/functions Design and own the roadmap for a centralized, AI-powered compliance platform that abstracts country-specific indirect tax, direct tax, and regulatory filing rules into reusable, scalable configurations across 100+ markets. Champion a policy-as-code model: treat government tax requirements as structured data that AI can ingest, validate, and deploy, replacing slow, per-country manual configuration. Define the AI + Human Intelligence (AI+HI) pipeline where it fits: how official government tax sources are ingested, how AI generates compliance configurations, and where human tax-expert review checkpoints apply. Partner with core capability teams to eliminate US hardcode and US-specific dependencies that create international tax risk. Own the tax engine consolidation path. Today indirect tax runs across six separate codebases and direct tax (Books-to-Tax) runs across three separate engines, with filing capability limited to UK MTD, partial US, and Australia through a partner. Drive the architectural decision (extend an existing engine, build new, or adopt a partner platform) and the multi-year consolidation roadmap, including known hard problems like the UK Flat Rate Scheme and Canada's federal/provincial split. Act as the product owner at the legal/engineering intersection, shaping technical direction rather than just brokering between teams, and set sequencing and investment priorities across Tier 1 and expansion markets. 2. Modernize Indirect Tax Delivers AI-powered VAT/GST/sales-tax experiences on a reusable foundation. Deliver AI-powered tax review, live tax rates and forms, and enhanced VAT/GST/sales-tax experiences. Build a reusable rates-and-forms platform and AI transaction-level tax classification so new markets inherit the capability by configuration. Use Singapore GST F5/F8 as the reference implementation on the unified tax engine, and sequence Malaysia GST and UAE VAT behind it on the same architecture. Grow indirect-tax adoption in priority markets, starting with the workflows customers rely on most. 3. Build AI-powered Direct Tax Extends the platform from indirect tax into direct tax on the same configuration model. Ship AI corporate tax estimates and annual tax-year updates on a reusable Direct Tax (Books-to-Tax) foundation. Own the B2T platform proof: Singapore Form C-S/C-S Lite as the first jurisdiction live on the unified engine, carried through a full jurisdiction-config lifecycle so the second market is a configuration, not a rebuild. Hold working knowledge of book-to-tax adjustments, entity-type tax treatment (corporation, trust, partnership, proprietorship), depreciation and loss-carryforward logic, and corporate filing schema literacy (1120, T2, CT600, and market equivalents). Own cross-border direct tax mechanics as multinational SMB customers scale: withholding tax and treaty rates, permanent establishment, transfer pricing basics, and Pillar Two awareness. Track UK Making Tax Digital (MTD) filing and payment acceptance rate as a standing compliance metric, including the seasonal ITSA reporting cycle. 4. Lead cross-functionally and set the bar Aligns the mission team and holds the platform to measurable outcomes. Unite an extended mission team across Product Development, Design (XD), Data Science, Product Marketing, Legal, and Finance behind a shared tax-platform vision. Manage external relationships with tax authorities (e.g., HMRC) and third-party tax vendors where needed and the strategy is to partner vs build (Fonoa, Sovos, Avalara-class). Define and hold the platform accountable to metrics and SLAs: onboarding cycle time, compliance coverage by market, filing error rates, tax-product adoption, and cost-per-country. Fast-follow US quarterly releases while owning market-differentiating localization, extensibility, and compliance depth. Qualifications Domain Experience leading global or international platform expansion: building core services and tax compliance infrastructure for multiple non-native markets. Strong grounding in both indirect tax (VAT/GST/sales tax) and direct/corporate tax for SMB and mid-market customers: book-to-tax logic, entity-type treatment, cross-border withholding and treaty mechanics, and digital filing regimes such as UK MTD. Experience building for SMB and mid-market customers at a company with an ecosystem of products and services. Functional Expertise designing global platform architecture that abstracts complex regional tax requirements (indirect and direct) into scalable, reusable components. Fluency applying AI/GenAI to real tax product problems: AI+HI workflows, structured-data ingestion, agentic automation. Ability to tell a config change (rate table, schema, form variant) apart from a genuine capability gap (new module, new workflow) without needing engineering to make that call for you. Comfortable reading primary-source tax law and filing schemas directly, not just secondary summaries. Exceptional at prioritization, able to translate tax complexity into data-driven decisions across a large, matrixed organization. Leadership Owns a domain end to end: sets product strategy for international tax and delivers it across engineering, legal, and compliance. Ability to influence beyond the direct team, across the portfolio and up to executive leadership. A quality champion with a high bar for consistency, comfortable with ambiguity, driven by customer obsession and a growth mindset. Intuit provides a competitive compensation package with a strong pay for performance rewards approach. This position may be eligible for a cash bonus, equity rewards and benefits, in accordance with our applicable plans and programs (see more about our compensation and benefits at Intuit : Careers Benefits). Pay offered is based on factors such as job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and work location. To drive ongoing fair pay for employees, Intuit conducts regular comparisons across categories of ethnicity and gender.

Our Team: How We Enrich Everyday Life You'll be joining Bauer Media Audio (BMA), Europe's biggest commercial audio broadcaster, connecting audiences across nine markets to the music, stories and experiences they love. Bauer Media Audio is making a significant investment in a new in house software engineering hub in Manchester. This new hub reinforces Manchester's position as a key technology centre for Bauer Media Audio, alongside its existing locations. We're creating a new engineering team to build innovative business-critical solutions that will power Bauer Media's audio platform of the future. Our team is built around squads, each aligned to a distinct value stream, with a layer of cross-squad roles - people whose expertise and support spans the whole team. Each squad will be led by a Product Manager and Lead Engineer, working in partnership and jointly accountable for their squad's work and outcomes. Squads are intentionally small - typically around five to six engineers - keeping them focused, collaborative, and able to move quickly. Our team thrives on collaboration, innovation, and a shared commitment to delivering high-quality, scalable solutions, working closely with product and technology peers to ensure our platforms meet the evolving needs of the business and our international markets. The Difference You Will Make As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll play a pivotal role in laying the technical foundations of this new engineering team. You'll lead hands-on development of infrastructure and prototyping work, mentor engineers, and collaborate across disciplines to deliver secure, resilient, and high-performing systems. Working closely with your squad, you will ensure the squad's work aligns with our technical direction and product priorities, contributing to a culture of continuous improvement, shared ownership, and engineering excellence. You will play a key role in helping to create a diverse, welcoming and inclusive environment that is psychologically safe, where everyone can be their authentic selves and do their best work, every day. Your Role Build and deliver Develop and maintain features and services across the platform, taking end-to-end ownership of your work from design through to deployment. Contribute to early-stage prototyping and infrastructure work, helping to shape the foundations of the platform. Shape technical direction Contribute to architectural decisions within your squad, sharing your experience and perspective to inform technical choices. Collaborate with your Lead Engineer and product colleagues to ensure your work aligns with the squad's technical direction and delivery goals. Mentor and support Support the growth of junior engineers through code review, pairing, and knowledge sharing - helping to build a team where everyone improves together. Play your part in growing the team - contributing to interviews and helping new engineers get up to speed quickly. Champion quality and operational excellence Champion DevOps practices, CI/CD, and a culture of automation and observability as a natural part of how you build. Lead on testing strategies and uphold security standards day to day. Participate in incident management rotas, providing hands-on technical support and clear communication during high-pressure situations. What We're Looking For Experience of some but not necessarily all of the following: Technical capability Solid hands-on engineering experience, with active proficiency across frontend and backend development - enough to lead by example and contribute to technical decisions. Experience with our core stack - a Java Spring Boot, AWS, Kubernetes and Kafka back end, with a TypeScript/React front end. Experience designing and building services within a microservices or domain-driven architecture - defining service boundaries and working with asynchronous, event-driven communication (e.g. via Kafka) - and an understanding of how those decisions play out once services are running in production. CI/CD, containerisation, and modern DevOps practices applied as part of everyday delivery. Security best practices embedded in day-to-day development. An interest in AI-assisted development tooling and how it can improve productivity and code quality. Collaboration and communication Experience mentoring engineers and supporting their growth, with an awareness of how to adapt your approach to different people and experience levels. Strong communication skills - able to collaborate across disciplines and articulate technical ideas clearly to non-technical colleagues. A habit of documenting decisions and sharing knowledge across the team. Industry and delivery experience Experience working in a product-led, agile software delivery environment. Incident management experience or familiarity with on-call responsibilities. Media, audio streaming, or consumer platform experience is a plus. Working Pattern and Location This is a permanent, hybrid, full-time role with an in-office presence twice a week in our Manchester hub. Like all roles in the team, this one includes participation in incident management rotas - we schedule these collaboratively, taking into account everyone's responsibilities and commitments outside of work. Why Join Us? The chance to work in a team building platforms that reach millions of listeners across Europe, with real impact on the products people use every day. A growing engineering organisation investing heavily in its people, practices, and technology - with genuine support for skills development. A collaborative, product-led environment where engineering has a clear and respected voice in shaping business outcomes. An environment that values empathy, accountability, continuous learning, and engineering excellence. About Bauer Media Group We are a media business focused on creating content that matters to millions of people across Europe. Our offering extends from print and online publishing to audio broadcasting and entertainment, alongside investments in other media related sectors. With more than 500 million copies sold each year, we are one of Europe's largest Publishers. From women's and celebrities' magazines to TV listings to food and special interest, we own some of the most popular publishing brands in Germany, UK, Poland and France - both digital and print.

Family-owned in the 5th generation, Bauer Media focuses on the long-term, with a consumer-first mindset that guides us across our diverse portfolio. Our workforce of 12,000 shares a common purpose: to deliver content and services that enrich people's everyday lives. What's in it for you You'll have 28 days holiday, bank holidays & 2 volunteer days to use. Your development matters, so access to our internal training provider - Bauer Academy, is a huge win. We have enhanced Maternity/Adoption, Paternity and Shared Parental Leave Pay. You'll have the opportunity for flexible working. And much more! We are an international employer and equal opportunities are important to us. That's why we welcome everyone in their uniqueness, regardless of e.g. religion, gender, skin color, disability in our house. We are committed to ensuring our recruitment process is inclusive and accessible to all. If you have a disability or a long term health condition, and need us to make any reasonable adjustments or do anything differently during any stage of the recruitment process, please let us know.
