Instead · San Francisco ·
Instead is where tax work gets done. Our AI agent orchestrates the entirety of how work gets done in tax, from preparation and compliance to filing and advisory. It's a fundamentally new way of doing tax work, and it's why top 500 firms, Big Four teams, and enterprise corporate tax departments are choosing Instead.
What makes us unique: we hold full government approvals with the IRS, 48 states, and all cities to e-file 1040, 1041, 1120, 1120S, and 1065, with 706, 709, 990, 5500, 2290, and PPT coming for tax year 2026. Instead is a full replacement for CCH Axcess, GoSystem, UltraTax, OneSource, CorpTax, Lacerte, ProConnect, Drake, and more. No other tax startup will be able to offer these capabilities for years as we are two to three years ahead of everyone else in government approvals. This lets us build product experiences that are simply unmatched in the market.
Instead is backed by Conviction, IRIS (the largest tax software provider in the UK), Skylark, Aprio, and many of our partners and customers. Our team includes leaders from Intuit, Gusto, Zenefits, Thomson Reuters, Wolters Kluwer, PwC, BDO, RSM, and KPMG.
We're looking for a Senior Director of Data Analytics and Business Systems to own the data infrastructure and business systems that power Instead's operations. You'll be responsible for everything from Salesforce and Okta to Metabase and Tableau, building the analytics and reporting layer that helps leadership make decisions and the IT systems that keep the company running.
This is a high-ownership role that spans product analytics, go-to-market analytics, finance reporting, and IT operations. You'll build ARR roll-forwards, renewal schedules, and pipeline dashboards while also managing identity and access management, data pipelines, and system integrations. You'll oversee an IT administration team responsible for device management, employee onboarding and offboarding across four offices in the US and internationally.
