Opportunity for Impact
Taxbit is seeking a Forward Deployed Engineer to be a critical technical partner in our growth.

This role requires professional proficiency in English. This role is based in Madrid. Candidates must be legally authorized to work in Spain or another European Union country without company-sponsored visa support (e.g., holders of a valid Residency and Work Visa or Permanent Resident status).

You will become the company's expert on our integration process, from backend data pipelines to frontend application integrations, and will develop and own the demos that bring our product to life.
The other half of your time will be spent as a key contributor to the core Taxbit platform. You will leverage the direct client insights from your field experience to identify problems, then design, build, and deliver the scalable platform solutions and new features our clients need, directly shaping our product roadmap.
We welcome individuals who are humble, hungry, and excited to tackle some of the industry's biggest challenges at the intersection of technology and client success!
