Enterprises waste millions on accounting firms to calculate R&D tax credits and capitalize software costs. Neo.Tax is automating this entirely. Our software ingests data from project management, identity management, payroll systems, and leverages AI to complete in hours what used to take weeks or months of manual work for U.S. businesses.
Neo.Tax is seeking a Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer who wants to build products that automate manual enterprise accounting and finance processes. The ideal candidate has expertise in developing complex web applications on both the frontend and backend.
Starting out, you will work on our software capitalization product. Software capitalization is the accounting process of tracking development costs as assets rather than expenses. It's required for compliance and affects how companies report financials. Our customers rely on us to automatically sync accounting data so that they can capitalize development costs monthly and maintain compliance with accounting standards.
We are a remote company, but we prefer to hire in time zones that can overlap with our HQ in Mountain View, CA!

Why Join Now
Who You Are
- Ownership-oriented — You want autonomy and responsibility. You're not looking for someone to hand you a detailed spec and check your work.
- Proactive communicator — You identify and raise risks before they become issues, summarize what you've heard, and ask clarifying questions rather than making assumptions.
- Pragmatic over idealistic — You evaluate solutions based on trade-offs, not dogma. You know when to take shortcuts and when to invest in durability.
What It’s Like to Work Here
What success looks like in 90 days
- You understand the fundamentals of our technology stack end-to-end. This doesn’t mean you understand all the business logic and code, but you understand the libraries we use and the code structure. You know where to look to find specific types of code.
- You understand the business domain you work in (software capitalization), characteristics of the product’s customers, how they work at a high-level, and why our software is valuable to them.
- You understand our development process, how we plan work, how we coordinate with other teams, how to submit code for review, how to review other engineers’ code.
- You’ve shipped a number of smaller features or bug fixes, in addition to at least one larger project that you implemented mostly independently.
Who should not apply
- People who have never lead an engineering project from inception to delivery without significant guidance.
- People who cannot take desired business outcomes and product requirements and break them up into iterative software deliverables that would deliver value in days or weeks not months.
- People who cannot evaluate solutions based on tradeoffs but always do things a certain way.
- People who are uncomfortable reading code to understand how a system works.
- People who rely on AI as a substitute for fundamental engineering skills.
- People who communicate reactively rather than proactively.
- People looking for significant mentorship. (This is strictly an unfortunate consequence of our team size—it’s not because we’re against mentorship in principle! 😢)
