AI for tax compliance on AvaTax and Returns
Senior Product Manager
AI-enabled tax compliance product direction for communications, hospitality and alcohol-beverage customers.
What I did
- Own product direction and roadmap priorities across the AvaTax and Returns experiences.
- Defined agentic AI use cases: tax determination support, exemption reasoning, classification assistance, filing preparation, exception triage and customer support automation.
- Shaped AI assistant workflows with human review, audit trails, explainability, privacy controls and compliance guardrails for regulated tax work.
- Work with engineering, design, tax SMEs, customer success and GTM to turn compliance pain points into pilots, requirements and enterprise-ready capabilities.
