Blue J is the leading generative AI solution for tax professionals. As a B2B SaaS company, our customers are accountants and tax experts who rely on our market‑leading software to deliver fast, accurate, and defensible answers to complex tax questions.
With the launch of our flagship generative AI product, we’ve consistently exceeded our revenue targets quarter over quarter and continue to accelerate our growth. Our product roadmap is ambitious, customer‑focused, and designed to deliver exceptional value at speed.
On the heels of our $122M USD Series D funding, we’re racing ahead with an exciting product roadmap and are looking for a Senior Infrastructure Engineer to support our growth and report directly to our Cloud Lead, Matthew Montreuil.
This is a hybrid position requiring applicants to be within commuting distance of Toronto or Kitchener‑Waterloo for in‑person meetings 1‑2 times a quarter. All candidates must be eligible to work in Canada.
