Job description

Central Job Post

Central is the only payroll and benefits platform that handles all the government bullshit automatically.

While traditional payroll providers force you to manage every state registration and HR task, Central actually does it all - saving you 60+ hours and thousands in fines.

We're on a mission to eliminate all business bullshit.

Building a company is still way too hard. Founders still have to register in multiple states to run payroll, set up workers' compensation, pay various payroll-related taxes, deal with intimidating government mail, update addresses across state filings, and troubleshoot with insurance companies.

Imagine a world where ambitious founders have more time to solve the world's most difficult problemsfrom preventing medical mistakes in hospitals to building next-generation night vision to curing brain cancer. That's what founders on Central are doing.

Currently, hundreds of companies run on Central, and we're growing rapidly. We've raised a huge seed / A from YC and some of the best investors in the world (not announced yet, happy to share in private).

As a founding member, you'll have a seat at the table and help Central scale to serve thousands of companies.

Central is a high-performance sports team with an extremely high bar.

Here are our 3 core values :

  • Think clearly
  • Show high agency
  • Craft magic

What You'll Do

  • Be the go-to tax expert at Central - review, challenge, and improve the work being done by offshore providers and AI agents
  • Own federal and state tax processes end-to-end : from client intake and planning to return prep and filing
  • Collaborate directly with our clients (early-stage startups) to solve complex tax challenges and proactively reduce risk
  • Work side-by-side with our Head of Accounting to ensure tax work fits cleanly into broader client workflows
  • Partner with engineering to productize tax processes - spotting automation opportunities and designing how we scale
  • Contribute to building a pod-based service model : tax and accounting leads working cross-functionally on a shared set of clients
  • Stay close to compliance, filings, and process innovation - but step back to help shape the overall tax offering as we grow
  • Your Skills

  • 510 years of tax experience, ideally at a Big 4 firm or a tech-forward tax startup. Extensive startup experience preferred.
  • Deep understanding of federal and multi-state corporate tax (especially for C-corps and startups)
  • Strong accounting foundation - comfortable reviewing or jumping into basic accounting work in the off-season
  • Experience managing or reviewing the work of junior preparers, offshore teams, or automation tools
  • Comfort with tech - not just using tools, but helping define or build lightweight automations, workflows, and process improvements
  • Excellent communicator - able to keep clients informed, flag issues early, and collaborate tightly with internal teammates
  • CPA or EA required
  • What we offer :

  • Competitive salary and equity
  • Comprehensive benefits : Medical, dental, vision, 401(k) - For US employee roles only
  • Unlimited PTO and sick leave
  • Remote work
  • 2-4 off-sites per year
  • Note for US Roles : We do not provide visa sponsorship. You must be authorized to work in the U.S.
