Ring is looking for a proactive Tax Manager who will be a key member of the Ring tax function.

As Ring continues to grow and expand, we are looking for a candidate with global tax experience who is comfortable directly liaising with Ring business teams with an aim of gaining a deep understanding of the business vision and model in order to develop and support comprehensive tax solutions.

The ideal candidate will have a strong understanding of indirect and direct tax issues and how those can impact the business solution being articulated. The candidate will also work closely with other members of the global tax department to communicate current and future business plans, obtain cross functional tax subject matter input, and ensure coordination of cross functional tax solutions.

The Tax Manager will be fully immersed within the Ring business team and support current and future Ring offerings, guidelines, and day to day questions.

We seek someone who is curious about how technology can transform the tax function - someone excited about leveraging AI and automation to increase efficiency, scale operations, and reimagine how tax work gets done.

Key job responsibilities

  • Team with and provide tax guidance to Ring business teams - including Business Development, Finance, Legal, Accounting, and product groups - to support current and future Ring offerings, product launches, and international expansions
  • Actively participate in projects throughout their life-cycle - from planning and research to modeling, implementation, and communication of tax implications to business and senior leadership
  • Collaborate with broader Amazon Tax teams - including reporting and compliance, transfer pricing, indirect tax, and tax provision - to ensure coordinated, cross-functional tax solutions
  • Research international tax issues, write technical and non-technical memoranda, and develop and maintain knowledge of global and OECD tax developments relevant to the Ring business
  • Manage relationships with external tax advisors and regulatory authorities; support operationalization of tax strategies as the business evolves
  • Support AI transformation and process innovation - leverage automation tools (e.g., automated documentation, paved road assessments, tax requirement generators) to increase efficiency and scale tax operations

A day in the life

Every day will be different. You might start the morning advising on a new Ring product launch in EMEA, spend the afternoon modeling the tax implications of an expansion into a new market, and end the day collaborating with AI tools to automate a compliance workflow that previously took weeks.

You'll work as part of a collaborative team that shares knowledge freely, embraces innovation, and delivers results together. You'll have the opportunity to contribute to initiatives that span the broader Amazon Tax group, and you'll be at the forefront of how technology is reshaping the tax function.

About the Company

A

Amazon.com Inc

At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

It’s Always Day 1
At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

Our Leadership Principles
Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
