Build Your Future With Us

The digitization of tax compliance is fundamentally changing global commerce and how businesses need to operate and grow. Governments now have real-time visibility into business data, creating new challenges and new opportunities for organizations around the world. At Sovos, we're transforming tax compliance from a business requirement into a driver of growth through AI-powered technology that delivers the accurate, real-time insights businesses need to make smarter decisions.

We're solving more than today's tax compliance challenges. We're helping reshape global economies by enabling organizations to navigate increasingly complex and rapidly changing regulatory environments with confidence – and helping communities thrive.

AI is accelerating what's possible, enabling tax and technology professionals to more effectively drive critical regulatory decisions. That's where Sovos excels, combining intelligent technology with human expertise to help customers stay ahead of change.

Don't worry if you don't check every box. We're focused on hiring great people, not perfect resumes. It's less about what you've done elsewhere and more about what you're capable of doing here.

You'll serve as the critical bridge between our technology and the people who rely on it, providing expert resolution to escalated technical issues and ensuring an excellent customer experience.

• Respond to and resolve technical support tickets, calls, and emails with professionalism and urgency, with particular focus on PostgreSQL database issues, file imports, and custom reporting challenges.
• Troubleshoot software issues by replicating problems, identifying root causes, and implementing solutions; leverage AI tools to streamline diagnostics and improve resolution speed.
• Conduct regular follow-ups on incident tickets to ensure complete resolution and customer satisfaction.
• Document all customer interactions, issues, and resolutions in the ticketing system; create and maintain knowledge base articles and troubleshooting guides.
• Escalate complex technical problems to appropriate teams when necessary, acting as a liaison between support and development with analysis at both the code and architecture levels.
• Monitor availability, performance, and capacity of technology platforms; participate in implementations, upgrades, and maintenance activities.
• Create scripts and automation tools to improve support efficiency and proactively address recurring issues.

• You're familiar with cloud infrastructure (AWS, OCI), Windows and Linux administration, and API-based services and integrations.
• You're fluent in English and comfortable using AI-assisted workflows to improve output quality while applying critical judgment to validate AI-generated content.
• Due to client contractual obligations, the successful candidate will be asked to clear a background check upon hire.
