Senior Tax Analyst

From Fivetran’s founding until now, our mission has remained the same: to make access to data as simple and reliable as electricity. With Fivetran, customer data arrives in their warehouses, canonical and ready to query, with no engineering or maintenance required. We’re proud that more organizations continue to leverage our technology every day to become truly data-driven.

About the Role

We’re looking for a detail-oriented, technically strong, and motivated Senior Tax Analyst to support our growing global tax function. This role will contribute to day-to-day tax compliance, process improvements, and cross-functional collaboration while helping maintain a strong internal control and reporting environment appropriate for a fast-growing SaaS company.

This is a full-time position based in our Bengaluru, India office. During the quarter-end close period (second week/three to five days after quarter end) and during the initial onboarding period (typically 3 months), the role will primarily work U.S. business hours in a remote capacity to support close collaboration with the team. As the individual gains proficiency and autonomy in the role, the position will transition to a hybrid, in-office schedule in Bengaluru, working standard IST hours aside from the recurring quarter-end close period. Our hybrid work model offers a blend of remote flexibility and in-person collaboration, including two days in the office each week to connect and build as a team.
