Director, ASC 740, Income Tax & Forecasting

We are seeking a Director to join our growing tax team and lead global income tax accounting (ASC 740), corporate income tax compliance, and forecasting. This position offers a unique opportunity to shape the global tax strategy of a high-growth, asset-intensive, public technology company delivering infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS). The role will be instrumental in driving timeliness, accuracy, efficiency, and insight across our income tax lifecycle while partnering cross-functionally with key stakeholders in Finance, Legal, and Accounting.

This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to a tax function that spans complex international structures, capital-intensive deployments, and rapidly evolving regulatory environments.

You will own the quarterly and annual ASC 740 tax provision process, manage U.S. federal and state corporate income tax compliance, and lead tax forecasting and planning activities. You will be responsible for interpreting tax technical issues, identifying risks and opportunities, supporting cross-border tax operations, and helping drive strategic decisions — including those involving M&A and transfer pricing. Success in this role requires strong technical tax expertise, cross-functional collaboration, and an aptitude for process improvement in a fast-paced public company environment.

• Lead the preparation and review of the quarterly and annual income tax provision in accordance with ASC 740, including deferred taxes, uncertain tax positions (FIN 48), and effective tax rate analysis.
• Oversee corporate income tax compliance for U.S. federal and state jurisdictions, coordinating with external tax advisors as needed.
• Develop and manage forecasting for tax expense and cash taxes, collaborating with FP&A and other finance teams.
  Support M&A activities, including tax due diligence, structuring, and post-acquisition integration.
  Monitor changes in tax law and regulations, assess business impact, and advise on necessary adjustments to strategy or reporting.
• Evaluate and support transfer pricing policies, intercompany arrangements, and global tax documentation requirements.
• Evaluate and support international tax planning strategies.
• Partner cross-functionally to analyze the tax implications of contracts, financing, asset deployments, and strategic transactions.
• Collaborate with Accounting and Legal on tax-related disclosures in public filings (10-Q, 10-K).
• Manage responses to tax audits and inquiries from federal and state authorities.
• Identify opportunities for process improvements and automation using tax technology tools.
• Serve as a key tax resource to the broader business, translating complex technical guidance into actionable insights.
