Blue J is the leading generative AI solution for tax professionals and one of Canada's fastest-growing AI companies. Headquartered in Toronto, we're a high-growth B2B SaaS company building industry-leading tax research software that helps accountants find accurate answers to complex tax questions with greater speed and confidence.

Backed by a $122M USD Series D funding round, we're scaling rapidly across North America and the UK while continuing to push the boundaries of what's possible with AI. By combining advanced technology with deep tax expertise, we empower tax professionals to work more efficiently, make better decisions, and deliver greater value to their clients.

This is a remote-first position, open to candidates legally eligible to work in the United States. For in-person collaboration, you’ll have the opportunity to travel to our Toronto office every quarter to connect with the broader team.

To help you get off to a great start, we bring all new team members together for their first three days of onboarding. If you’re based outside of our local commuting area, Blue J will arrange and cover your travel and accommodation.

We’re looking for a Tax Lawyer or Tax Accountant with 3–5 years of experience in federal tax to join our product team as an Associate, Tax Research (US). Our ideal candidate is well-versed in the fundamentals of U.S. federal taxation and has developed an area of expertise within federal tax. As an Associate, Tax Research (US) joining our team of tax experts, you will use your tax expertise to play a central role in continuing to develop Blue J, our large language model-enabled tax research tool.

In this role, you will gain invaluable experience and learn from some of the best in the field of AI and tax.

While we’re an AI company, professional experience in AI is not required. We’re looking for someone who loves tax and is passionate about how technology can make tax law more transparent and accessible. Your expertise will be instrumental in helping our team as we move this mission forward and take Blue J to new heights. We’re a team of passionate, driven, and friendly people all working towards the same goal, and can’t wait to see the contributions you will make!
