Description:
We believe that Amazon is the best place in the world to do indirect tax calculation and collection work.
Amazon strives to be the Earth’s most customer-centric company, where people can find and discover virtually anything they want to buy online. One by product of that mission entails becoming one of the world’s largest collectors of online indirect taxes and fees – including US sales taxes, value-added taxes, and other global transaction taxes. The Tax Engine Team ensures that Amazon has the right technology and processes to not only calculate and collect those taxes accurately in a rapidly changing business and tax environment – but also support continued business growth and innovation by providing world-class services to millions of our customers and sellers all over the world.

As a Principal Product Manager you will help develop and evolve our indirect tax technology, processes, services, features, and operations. You will be expected to respond to new or changing tax legislative/compliance and business needs, and drive the end-to-end project lifecycle required to adapt or enhance our indirect tax collection capabilities to meet those needs. You will partner closely with cross functional teams across nearly all of Amazon to gather business and tax requirements, convert those requirements into product specifications, collaborate with software and business teams, and continue to engage through the entire lifecycle of our projects – from design-to-delivery.
